Hello,

I am using Web API to retrieve the list of jobs in my .Net application.(aspx pages).
Could anyone help me with the code as I am new to VisualCron.

Thank you,
Deepti.

Hi,

here is the documentation for this with some samples:

Hello,
I have gone through the document.
In this line
var client = new WebServiceClient();
I dont get WebServiceClient() i can only see WebService.
How do i get WebServiceClient();
Please help.

Add a web service reference to: http://localhost:8001/VisualCron?wsdl

---

did that but no success

What error do you get when adding the web service reference?

Hello,
I have added the web service reference successfully. but the problem is when i start writing the code from your sample

var client = new WebServiceClient(binding, new EndpointAddress("http://localhost:8001/VisualCron"));
//or just:
//
//var client = new WebServiceClient();
//
//but better setup binding
if (client.ChannelFactory.Credentials != null)
{
//set Credentials
client.ChannelFactory.Credentials.UserName.UserName = txtUserName.Text;
client.ChannelFactory.Credentials.UserName.Password = txtPassWord.Text;
}


}
i am not able to write WebServiceClient()
I don't understand if I am missing any dll?

WebServiceClient is an object in the service reference. You need to import or direct reference to that.

For example if the name of the service reference is "ServiceReference1" you need to use ServiceReference1.WebClient

Our current code looks like this:

VisualCron.WebService client = new VisualCron.WebService();
client.UnsafeAuthenticatedConnectionSharing = true;
client.Url = "http://localhost:8000/VisualCron";
client.UseDefaultCredentials = true;

ICredentials credentials = new NetworkCredential("<username>", "<password>");
client.Credentials = credentials;

LogonResult loginresult = client.Logon("<cronusername>", "<password>");

JobClass[] jobs= client.Job_List();

This code return a valid authentication token but shows in the last line´s code execution this error:
Client found response content type of '', but expected 'text/xml'.
The request failed with an empty response.

Please Suggest

Hi,

we tried this and get empty jobclasses

HttpWebRequest request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create("http://localhost:8000/visualcron/xml/job/List?username=admin&password=");
request.Method = "GET";
WebResponse webResponse = request.GetResponse();
Stream webStream = webResponse.GetResponseStream();
var ser = new XmlSerializer(typeof(JobClass[]));
JobClass[] jobs = (JobClass[])ser.Deserialize(webStream);

thanks!

What exactly do you get when trying this in a normal browser (if you view source):

http://localhost:8001/visualcron/xml/job/List?username=admin&password=

Please try the web service API again by downloading this version: http://www.visualcron.co....aspx?g=posts&t=5208 

Then extract the attached sample project for connecting.
