  • Article

Introduction

Below PSI sample code is to Create a user in Project server and Add the user to a specific Group

Sample Code

public static Guid CreatePsvrUser(string resname, string ntAcc)
        {
            Guid gpUID = new Guid("303D8BA6-BD1A-437A-984E-B19AD11EF345");    //group UID can be found from MSP_WEB_SECURITY_GROUPS
            ResourceWS.Resource resourceClient = new ResourceWS.Resource();
            resourceClient.Credentials = nc;
            ResourceWS.ResourceDataSet resDs = new ResourceWS.ResourceDataSet();
            srvSecurity.Security objSecurity = new srvSecurity.Security();
            objSecurity.Credentials = nc;
            ResourceWS.ResourceDataSet.ResourcesRow resourceRow = resDs.Resources.NewResourcesRow();
            Guid NewResGuid = Guid.NewGuid();
            resourceRow.RES_UID = NewResGuid;
            resourceRow.RES_NAME = resname;
            resourceRow.RES_TYPE = (int)PSLibrary.Resource.Type.WorkResource;
            resDs.Resources.AddResourcesRow(resourceRow);
            resourceClient.CreateResources(resDs, false, true);
            ResourceWS.ResourceDataSet.ResourceAvailabilitiesRow resAvailRow = resDs.ResourceAvailabilities.NewResourceAvailabilitiesRow();
            resAvailRow.RES_UID = resourceRow.RES_UID;
            resAvailRow.SetRES_AVAIL_FROMNull();
            resAvailRow.SetRES_AVAIL_TONull();
            resAvailRow.RES_AVAIL_UNITS = 100;
            resDs.ResourceAvailabilities.AddResourceAvailabilitiesRow(resAvailRow);
            ResourceWS.ResourceAuthorizationDataSet resourceAuthDs = new ResourceWS.ResourceAuthorizationDataSet();
            ResourceWS.ResourceAuthorizationDataSet.ResourcesRow resourceAuthRow = resourceAuthDs.Resources.NewResourcesRow();
            resourceAuthRow.RES_UID = resourceRow.RES_UID;
            resourceAuthRow.RES_IS_WINDOWS_USER = true;
            resourceAuthRow.WRES_ACCOUNT = ntAcc;
            resourceAuthDs.Resources.AddResourcesRow(resourceAuthRow);
            resourceClient.SetResourceAuthorization(resourceAuthDs);
            srvSecurity.SecurityGroupsDataSet secutiryAuthDs = new srvSecurity.SecurityGroupsDataSet();
            secutiryAuthDs = objSecurity.ReadGroup(gpUID);
            srvSecurity.SecurityGroupsDataSet.GroupMembersRow securityAuthRow = secutiryAuthDs.GroupMembers.NewGroupMembersRow();
            secutiryAuthDs.GroupMembers.AddGroupMembersRow(gpUID, resourceRow.RES_UID);
            objSecurity.SetGroups(secutiryAuthDs);
            return NewResGuid;
        }

 Happy coding ......Cheers .. Ajith
