Web Service Example: Get the Organization Data
Quote from Deepa Kapoor on November 27, 2025, 10:51 amHere is an example of how to use the OfficeClip Web Service Client to get the organization information
Code:using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Web.Services; using System.Web.Services.Protocols; using WebServiceClient.Generic; namespace WebServiceClient { public class Program { static void Main(string[] args) { // Create a web services connection WebServiceClient.Generic.OfficeClipGeneric ofg = new WebServiceClient.Generic.OfficeClipGeneric(); try { // Create a cookie container so that the session can persist on the server ofg.CookieContainer = new System.Net.CookieContainer(); // Login to the Server string errorMessage = ofg.ValidateUser("octest1@officeclip.com", "password"); Console.WriteLine ( (errorMessage == string.Empty) ? "Login Successful" : "Login Failed: " + errorMessage); DataSet ds = null; // Service Type 13 is for organization data DataSet ds = ofg.GetDataSet(13, -1, string.Empty, string.Empty, string.Empty, -1); } catch (SoapException ex) { Console.WriteLine(ex.Message); } finally { // Finally end the Session with OfficeClip Server ofg.SessionOver(); } } }To interpret the DataSet of the above code we need to use the Schema for the organization data, for that we can use the following code fragment:
Code:string XmlSchema = ofg.GetXmlSchema(13);where 13 is the service item code. Various service items codes are given in the document: https://www.officeclip.com/docs/output/webservice/index.html
Here is an example of how to use the OfficeClip Web Service Client to get the organization information
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Web.Services;
using System.Web.Services.Protocols;
using WebServiceClient.Generic;
namespace WebServiceClient
{
public class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
// Create a web services connection
WebServiceClient.Generic.OfficeClipGeneric ofg = new WebServiceClient.Generic.OfficeClipGeneric();
try
{
// Create a cookie container so that the session can persist on the server
ofg.CookieContainer = new System.Net.CookieContainer();
// Login to the Server
string errorMessage = ofg.ValidateUser("octest1@officeclip.com", "password");
Console.WriteLine ( (errorMessage == string.Empty) ? "Login Successful" : "Login Failed: " + errorMessage);
DataSet ds = null;
// Service Type 13 is for organization data
DataSet ds = ofg.GetDataSet(13, -1, string.Empty, string.Empty, string.Empty, -1);
}
catch (SoapException ex)
{
Console.WriteLine(ex.Message);
}
finally
{
// Finally end the Session with OfficeClip Server
ofg.SessionOver();
}
}
}
