Examples

Before you can compile this code example, you must do the following:
Configure your development environment and create a C# class library project in Visual Studio. For information about configuring a development environment, see Setting Up the Development Environment for SharePoint 2010 on Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows Server 2008.
Add the Microsoft.PerformancePoint.Scorecards.Client, Microsoft.PerformancePoint.Scorecards.ServerCommon, and Microsoft.PerformancePoint.Scorecards.Store DLLs as references to your project. For more information about PerformancePoint Services in Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010 DLLs, see PerformancePoint Services DLLs Used in Development Scenarios.
Add the following using directives to your class.
using Microsoft.PerformancePoint.Scorecards; using Microsoft.PerformancePoint.Scorecards.Store;Create a method that defines a string variable named "relativePath" to store the server-relative path to the object. The following example path sets the object identifier to "5": /BI Center/Lists/PerformancePoint Content/5_.000.
Paste the following code example into the new method.
// Retrieve the object from the specified location.
// The RepositoryLocation constructor takes the server-relative path to the object.
Scorecard requestedScorecard = SPDataStore.GlobalDataStore.GetScorecard(new RepositoryLocation(relativePath));
