Retrieve all contents of Zoho module via REST API c#

I am trying to get the full contents of my modules From Zoho to our local Server. The deluge code does work as it returns to me the data which is being sent via the API. However, once it reaches the API, it is null. Any idea?
Below is the deluge code:
// Create a map that holds the values of the new contact that needs to be created
evaluation_info = Map();
evaluation_info.put("BulkData",zoho.crm.getRecords("Publishers"));
data = Map();
data.put(evaluation_info);
response = invokeurl
[
url :"https://zohoapi.xxxxx.com/publisher/publish"
type :POST
parameters:data
connection:"zohowebapi"
];
info data; (data returns all the data from publishers)
Here is my ASP.NET core restful API. It does ping it and create the file but the content of the file is null.
Route("[controller]")]
[ApiController]
public class PublisherController : ControllerBase
{
[HttpGet("[action]"), HttpPost("[action]")]
public void Publish(string data)
{
(it's already null when it comes here. why?)
string JSONresult = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(data);
string path = #"C:\storage\journalytics_evaluationsv2.json";
using (var file = new StreamWriter(path, true))
{
file.WriteLine(JSONresult.ToString());
file.Close();
}
}
}
}
What am I missing? Thank you

After contacting Zoho support, the solution he offered was to loop through the data in order to get all the contents from a module (if they are more than 200 records. With the solution provided, one doesn't really need the deluge code anymore as long as you have the ZOHO api set to your account in code. This was my final solution. This solution is not scalable at all. It's best to work with the BULK CSV.
// Our own ZohoAPI which lets us connect and authenticate etc. Yours may look slightly different
ZohoApi zohoApi = new ZohoApi();
zohoApi.Initialize();
ZCRMRestClient restClient = ZCRMRestClient.GetInstance();
var allMedicalJournals = new List<ZCRMRecord>();
for (int i = 1; i <= 30; i++)
{
List<ZCRMRecord> accountAccessRecords2 =
restClient.GetModuleInstance("Journals").SearchByCriteria("Tag:equals:MedicalSet", i, 200).BulkData.ToList();
foreach (var newData in accountAccessRecords2)
allMedicalJournals.Add(newData);
}

How to create a shared parameter that can be shared when project standards are transferred

I am working on a project where I need to create multiple revit files consisting of wall types and create shared parameters into them. I completed this process.
But on manually clicking on Manage > Transfer Project Standards
Copy from "project name" > Wall Types through the revit interface.
I imported the wall types of different revit files created into one.
But the shared parameters seems to repeat in the type parameter list of the wall type with data in one set and the repeated set has no data.
It looks like the parameters I created are not shareable.
if (Convert.ToString(value) != "")
{
Type type = value.GetType();
string originalFile = uiApp.Application.SharedParametersFilename;
string tempFile = Path.Combine(Path.GetTempPath(), Path.GetRandomFileName()) + ".txt";
using (File.Create(tempFile)) { }
uiApp.Application.SharedParametersFilename = tempFile;
try
{
if (ele.LookupParameter(param) == null)
{
ExternalDefinitionCreationOptions edco = null;
if (type.Name.Equals("Double"))
edco = new ExternalDefinitionCreationOptions(param, ParameterType.Number);
else
edco = new ExternalDefinitionCreationOptions(param, ParameterType.Text);
edco.Visible = true;
var definition = uiApp.Application.OpenSharedParameterFile().Groups.Create("Custom Parameters").Definitions.Create(edco);
var newCategorySet = uiApp.Application.Create.NewCategorySet();
newCategorySet.Insert(doc.Settings.Categories.get_Item(BuiltInCategory.OST_Walls));
Autodesk.Revit.DB.Binding binding = uiApp.Application.Create.NewTypeBinding(newCategorySet);
doc.ParameterBindings.Insert(definition, binding, BuiltInParameterGroup.PG_IDENTITY_DATA);
if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty((string)value))
ele.LookupParameter(param).Set((string)value);
}
else
{
if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty((string)value))
ele.LookupParameter(param).Set((string)
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
}
finally
{
uiApp.Application.SharedParametersFilename = originalFile;
}
}
Here, this block of code is executed in a loop where "element" is the element into whom the shared parameter needs to be added. "param" is the parameter name and "value" is the value for the parameter. Please let me know if this is the right way to create shared parameter that can be shared when project wall types are transferred to another project.
Thank you

definitely this will happen, as long as you are in a loop, and keeps creating a shared parameter for each file. this will lead to creating unique GUID for each revit file. and when you combine all you will find all the shared parameters with different Guids but with the same name.
you need to create the shared parameter once, then for each revit file, set the sharedparameter file (that is already created with sharedparameter) and get the sharedparameter from it, then assign it to the category you wish for each revit file.

hope that helps.

Where to find my GUID on my c# solution

Hello I have been having issues with MonoGame when building I get the glbind... error in the opengl32.dll so I was suggested to find my GUID and it sounds like a simple task but i have looked in the project folder files and cant find it I found one which is
<ProjectGuid>{325BCA73-8459-49AF-9C31-D4A268BF8A1A}</ProjectGuid>
but im looking for one like this
<ProjectTypeGuids>{9B831FEF-F496-498F-9FE8-180DA5CB4258};{FAE04EC0-301F-11D3-BF4B-00C04F79EFBC}</ProjectTypeGuids>
here is a image of my file folder and the main "collisions".csproj file where I found the one GUID. I have done some research but i cant seem to find an answer as to where to look.
HERE
More accuretly im looking for the Projecttypeguids so I can delete one of them to see if that solves my problem as suggested here....I recognized what i worded at the top is kind of vague sorry
Here

The first example you gave is the GUID of your project. Hence ProjectGuid.
The second is a list of the GUIDs of the project types of your project. Hence ProjectTypeGuids.
If you are looking for the GUID of your project, the first example is giving you the correct answer.

The screenshot you linked to shows a project that does not have any type GUIDs listed. If present, the value is mostly used by development tools (e.g. VS uses it to figure out what items to include in the context menus for adding new items.) If there is no project type GUID your project will still "work" for the most part, but you will likely encounter odd behavior in your IDE of choice.
The project type GUID values in your question are correct for a project that is a C# application that uses the MonoGame plugin. If your project file is missing that tag, just add it yourself with whichever GUIDs you want your project to have.
(The list of well-known GUIDs can be found here, though the MonoGame one I had to look up on Google.)

First you didn't mentioned what you're using winforms or wpf.
OK whatever.The ProjectTypeGuids is not supported in winforms you can find them if you're using wpf.
If you're using wpf you can use this code:
public string GetProjectTypeGuids(EnvDTE.Project proj)
{
string projectTypeGuids = "";
object service = null;
Microsoft.VisualStudio.Shell.Interop.IVsSolution solution = null;
Microsoft.VisualStudio.Shell.Interop.IVsHierarchy hierarchy = null;
Microsoft.VisualStudio.Shell.Interop.IVsAggregatableProject aggregatableProject = null;
int result = 0;
service = GetService(proj.DTE, typeof(Microsoft.VisualStudio.Shell.Interop.IVsSolution));
solution = (Microsoft.VisualStudio.Shell.Interop.IVsSolution)service;
result = solution.GetProjectOfUniqueName(proj.UniqueName, hierarchy);
if (result == 0)
{
aggregatableProject = (Microsoft.VisualStudio.Shell.Interop.IVsAggregatableProject) hierarchy;
result = aggregatableProject.GetAggregateProjectTypeGuids(projectTypeGuids);
}
return projectTypeGuids;
}
public object GetService(object serviceProvider, System.Type type)
{
return GetService(serviceProvider, type.GUID);
}
public object GetService(object serviceProviderObject, System.Guid guid)
{
object service = null;
Microsoft.VisualStudio.OLE.Interop.IServiceProvider serviceProvider = null;
IntPtr serviceIntPtr;
int hr = 0;
Guid SIDGuid;
Guid IIDGuid;
SIDGuid = guid;
IIDGuid = SIDGuid;
serviceProvider = (Microsoft.VisualStudio.OLE.Interop.IServiceProvider)serviceProviderObject;
hr = serviceProvider.QueryService(SIDGuid, IIDGuid, serviceIntPtr);
if (hr != 0)
{
System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.ThrowExceptionForHR(hr);
}
else if (!serviceIntPtr.Equals(IntPtr.Zero))
{
service = System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.GetObjectForIUnknown(serviceIntPtr);
System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.Release(serviceIntPtr);
}
return service;
}

Update Data Source and DataSet reference for SSRS 2012 Deployment from C#

EDIT: I think I can simplify this question a bit to ask for only what is needed to know:
I am working with C# using the SSRS 2010 Web Service:
'ReportService2010.asmx' http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee640743.aspx
I can use the method 'CreateDataSource' to create a Datasource on an instance of an SSRS Server http:// (servername)/ReportServer.
I can also use the method 'CreateCatalogItem' to create a report on a server from referencing a project's RDL local file to serialize it to a byte array and then pass that as a 'Definition' to the method to create it on the server.
Now everything I do works with a caveat, and a major one. I can only deploy everything to the same folder. If I deploy a Data Source to say the 'Data Sources' folder and then a report to say: 'Test Reports', the report does not know it has a shared data source to reference at a different location. So I dug a little at the technet articles and have tried to 'GetItemDataSources' method but it only gives a name and a type for the ReportingService2010.DataSource return type. Does anyone know the method to link up a 'Report' or 'Dataset's CatalogItem property of 'DataSource', so it points to a reference in a different folder on the SSRS Server when deploying? There has to be a way to do it as I know I can deploy from Business Intelligence Development Studio and it can do this.

I've had similar issues when deploying report files; when deploying through rs.exe or code you run into these issues where reports lose their link to a Data Source.
We solved this by explicitly pointing the report to the server-side Data Source immediately after being deployed by our application; is this similar to what you're trying to do?
Anyway, here's the slightly adapted code we use in our report deployment application:
static void SetReportDataSource(string reportPath)
{
string dsPath = CombinePath(DataSourcePath, DataSourceFolder, DataSourceName);
DataSourceReference dsRef = new DataSourceReference()
{
Reference = dsPath
};
DataSource ds = new DataSource();
ds.Item = dsRef as DataSourceDefinitionOrReference;
ds.Name = DataSourceName;
var rptDataSources = Server.GetItemDataSources(reportPath);
foreach (var rptDs in rptDataSources)
{
Server.SetItemDataSources(filePath, new DataSource[] { ds });
}
}
So, basically we have variables that define information like the Data Source name, Data Source location on server, and the same for a report. They can be in different folders.
Based on this, we create a new reference to a Data Source and then repoint the report to this using SetItemDataSources.
This sorted out the Data Source issue for me, anyway. Not sure about Shared Datasets and how they handle all of this, but hopefully this will be of some help.
Also, just thought that this would be using the ReportService2005 endpoint, but it's probably not too different for ReportService2010.
Edit:
For the paths mentioned here, these are relative to the server, e.g. /Reports/. You don't need the fully qualified name as you define the Url property of the ReportService2010 object which contains the destination.

Maybe this might be some help. I used it to reset the DataSource for all the reports in a given Parent Folder, and it's subfolders:
using System;
using GetPropertiesSample.ReportService2010;
using System.Diagnostics;
using System.Collections.Generic; //<== required for LISTS
using System.Reflection;
namespace GetPropertiesSample
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
GetListOfObjectsInGivenFolder_and_ResetTheReportDataSource("0_Contacts"); //<=== This is the parent folder
}
private static void GetListOfObjectsInGivenFolder_and_ResetTheReportDataSource(string sParentFolder)
{
// Create a Web service proxy object and set credentials
ReportingService2010 rs = new ReportingService2010();
rs.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;
CatalogItem[] reportList = rs.ListChildren(#"/" + sParentFolder, true);
int iCounter = 0;
foreach (CatalogItem item in reportList)
{
iCounter += 1;
Debug.Print(iCounter.ToString() + "]#########################################");
if (item.TypeName == "Report")
{
Debug.Print("Report: " + item.Name);
ResetTheDataSource_for_a_Report(item.Path, "/DataSources/Shared_New"); //<=== This is the DataSource that I want them to use
}
}
}
private static void ResetTheDataSource_for_a_Report(string sPathAndFileNameOfTheReport, string sPathAndFileNameForDataSource)
{
//from: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13144604/ssrs-reportingservice2010-change-embedded-datasource-to-shared-datasource
ReportingService2010 rs = new ReportingService2010();
rs.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;
string reportPathAndName = sPathAndFileNameOfTheReport;
//example of sPathAndFileNameOfTheReport "/0_Contacts/207_Practices_County_CareManager_Role_ContactInfo";
List<ReportService2010.ItemReference> itemRefs = new List<ReportService2010.ItemReference>();
ReportService2010.DataSource[] itemDataSources = rs.GetItemDataSources(reportPathAndName);
foreach (ReportService2010.DataSource itemDataSource in itemDataSources)
{
ReportService2010.ItemReference itemRef = new ReportService2010.ItemReference();
itemRef.Name = itemDataSource.Name;
//example of DataSource i.e. 'itemRef.Reference': "/DataSources/SharedDataSource_DB2_CRM";
itemRef.Reference = sPathAndFileNameForDataSource;
itemRefs.Add(itemRef);
}
rs.SetItemReferences(reportPathAndName, itemRefs.ToArray());
}
}
}

Delete Record from C# using ManagedInterop

I am working with a C# project that uses the dll, Microsoft.Dynamics.AX.ManagedInterop to work with an AX 2012 environment. From within the code, I need to find a SalesQuotationLine based on specific criteria and delete it. So far, I can get the record I need but I am unable to delete it because I am not using a TTSBEGIN/TTSCOMMIT statement and I am not using FORUPDATE. This is my code:
DictTable dictTable = new DictTable(Global.tableName2Id("SalesQuotationLine"));
int quotationIdFieldId = (int)dictTable.Call("fieldName2Id", "QuotationId");
int bdcParentRecIdFieldId = (int)dictTable.Call("fieldName2Id", "BDCParentRecId");
var query = new Query();
var datasource = query.addDataSource(Global.tableName2Id("SalesQuotationLine"));
var queryRange1 = datasource.addRange(quotationIdFieldId);
queryRange1.value = "=" + line.QuotationId;
QueryRun queryRun = new QueryRun(query as object);
while (queryRun.next())
{
var result = queryRun.get(Global.tableName2Id("SalesQuotationLine"));
result.Delete();
}
I also looked at the code here, http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc197113.aspx but I found that I cannot use it since the code I am working with does not use the .NET Business Connector (I am not sure when one dll should be used over the other).

Use TTSBegin() and TTSCommit() methods on Microsoft.Dynamics.AX.ManagedInterop.RuntimeContext.Current. The forUpdate flag can be set by QueryBuildDataSource's update().
It may be easier (and better for maintenance) to write it in an X++ method just call the method from C#.
