'Usage
Dim instance As Resource

public ResourceDataSet ReadResource(
Guid resourceUid
)
Parameters
- resourceUid
Type: System.Guid
A GUID of the desired resource.
Return Value
Type: WebSvcResource.ResourceDataSet
A ResourceDataSet populated with detailed information in Resources and ResourceCustomFields.
Remarks
Returns information in the Resources and ResourceCustomFields tables.
If you call ReadResource and pass in a Guid for a resource that no longer exists in the system a GeneralSecurityAccessDenied error is returned.
Project Server Permissions
Permission |
Description |
|---|---|
Manage all enterprise users, resources and groups. Global permission. |
|
View enterprise resource data for this resource. Category permission. |
|
The current user can accept time sheets. Passes only if the resource requested is the current user. Global permission. |
Examples
This example retrieves enterprise resources, creating several if they are not present, reads the resource using a resource filter, checks out each resource if available, updates the RES_CODE property of available resources, and checks the resources back in. It reports the before state, updates made, and the after state of the resources.
Please see Prerequisites for Reference Code Samples for critical information on running this code sample.
