public void QueueCreateProject(
Guid jobUid,
ProjectDataSet dataset,
bool validateOnly
)
Parameters
- jobUid
Type: System.Guid
GUID of the queue job.
- dataset
Type: WebSvcProject.ProjectDataSet
Contains the project data.
- validateOnly
Type: System.Boolean
If true, only validates the input data and does not perform the action.
Remarks
QueueCreateProject is an asynchronous method that sends a message to the Project Server Queuing Service.
Note
You cannot use the Project Server Interface (PSI) to create local custom fields in projects. However, the PSI does support editing local custom field values on tasks, resources, and assignments. When creating a ProjectDataSet.TaskRow, you must specify TASK_DUR_FMT. Otherwise, later use of this project in Project Professional can result in unpredictable behavior, including possible data loss. Any changes made to enterprise resource properties in ProjectDataSet.ProjectResourceRow will be lost the next time Project Professional refreshes the data from Project Server.
When you add a task to a ProjectDataSet, don't set the TASK_WBS property. The TASK_WBS property is read-only, although it is marked as read-write in the PSI. If you add a task with the TASK_WBS property set to a specified value, Project Professional ignores the value set from the PSI and assigns a value according to the task outline position when you open the project. To see the result in Project Professional, check the WBS code value on the Advanced tab of the Task Information dialog box.
