Is it possible to retrieve list of subprojects using PSI (project server interface)? I found Relations datatable in ProjectDataSet but it is always empty. Maybe there is an easier way to get guids of subprojects than using PSI?
MSDN says that Relations table is used to map tables in dataset, not projects. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/websvcproject.projectdataset.relations_di_pj14mref.aspx. Try to check Task data table. It will contain summary tasks for each sub project. Maybe it also contains sub project id.

The current CRM UI allows you to create relatively complex queries which you can even extend further with tools like FetchXML Builder.
However, when we get to select the columns in the View layout, the interface provides access only to the first direct related set of entities and does not navigate further down.
There are many cases where the column you want to include in the View is just "two-clicks" away and you cannot include it because is "too far". To make things worse, the FetchXML Builder allows you to re-write the join but it does not allow you change the the columns layout you started with when you opened the View initially. IOW, you can modify the query logic but you cannot include additional columns as required.
One possible solution would be to edit the solution directly and inject the FetchXML directly (I have not tried this though) but I would like to listen to the community opinion first or to other possible solution.
Regards and thank you for taking your time.
Unfortunately this is a long existing limitation. There is no supported customization workaround to circumvent this other than building a Fetchxml report or Power BI report to embed with the necessary layout.
From documentation:
You can include columns from the current entity or any of the related entities that have a 1:N entity relationship with the current entity.
You can tweak the layoutxml of any view, but still it has to be in supported zone to avoid failures.
I have written a article in my google docs.
I have included small tables, big tables and huge tables in different places in the files.
Now I need to modify some properties of all tables at a time.
But that seems not possible?
Are there any methods to modifying properties of all tables at a time for google docs?
PS. more details to illustrate my issue:
1. Here is a doc file with one table.
2. Right click on the table and choose Table properties
3. Now here comes more tables in a doc file
How can I deal with all the tables together? (All modifications are the same)
Method 1
When creating the tables, you can simply set all the properties on the first one and then for the next ones you can copy and paste the first one since the format will be kept.
Method 2
If you want to modify more tables at the same time, you can make use of Apps Script.
Apps Script is a powerful development platform which can be used to build web apps and automate tasks. What makes it special is the fact that it is easy to use and to create applications that integrate with G Suite.
Therefore, your task can be achieved by using this script.
Snippet
function setTableProperties() {
var doc = DocumentApp.openById("DOCUMENT_ID");
var tables = doc.getBody().getTables();
tables.forEach((table) => {
//Any instruction run with the variable table will be executed for all tables.
});
}
Explanation
The above script gathers all the tables from the wanted document and then using a for loop accesses each table from the document.
In order to set the properties of the tables as wanted, you just have to use the appropriate method/s.
The getAttributes method can be used as well in order to see exactly which properties does a table posses.

Apps Script Document Service;
Apps Script Enum Attribute;

I am creating a Query using the Rally/Excel plug-in. I am creating the report with a base type of Task but want to include User Story information in the Query.
I have been able to do this before by adding "WorkProduct.Release" into the columns listing. That works no problem. When I attempt this with a custom field named "CR#" I get no contents being returned.
I am able to pull custom fields from the Task itself without issue it just appears to be an issue when pulling from the parent object.
I have verified the field name and that the content is actually populated. Does anyone know a way to pull this data via the excel plug-in or if there is a limitation with pulling custom field information from a parent?
In Web Serivces API Workproduct attribute is Artifact. Artifact is a parent of Task, HierarchicalRequirement (user story) and Defects, and other work item types. Those types can have custom fields created on them, but the parent Artifact is not aware of them. It is not possible to traverse from Artifact to a custom field, and it should also not be possible to traverse to Iteration or Release from Artifact. Those fields do not exist on Artifact object in the API. It is possible to traverse Workproduct.FormattedID because FormattedID attribute exists on Artifact. That's where work item types inherit the FormattedID from. If I use Workproduct.Release or Workproduct.Iteration in Excel plugin in a query on a Task object following this syntax:
(Workproduct.Iteration = /iteration/12352898163)
I get this error:
(Workproduct.Iteration.Name = it123)
will produce a similar error.
I put this to the Rally Support folks and got the following answer, so the short answer is no...can't be done:
When you query using WorkProduct.FormattedID on a task, the data can
be returned because that field is part of "Artifact". You can see
this by looking at the Web Services API information, which I have
included some screenshots to illustrate this. The custom field you
are trying to query doesn't reside on Artifact, so is not found by the
query.
The actual work product that has your custom field would be either a
defect or a story, but the Task object does not reference back to that
to allow you to query.
You could do another query for the different work products and include
the custom field, then combine the two worksheets.
I am trying to write an application which accesses Notes databases through the C API, this works so far as I can get the list (summary info) of the notes in a view or folder with NIFOpenCollection() and NIFReadEntries().
However, this will return the notes in a seemingly arbitrary order. How can I retrieve all notes in a view or folder, sorted by a specific column? NIFSetCollation() doesn't seem to help with that, as it only allows to specify a collation/order which is already defined in the template(?).
The collation has to have been previously defined in the design of the NSF file that you are accessing. I.e., NIFSetCollation should work, but you have to have laid the groundwork for it first. Normally, one would do this by using Domino Designer to set up the column sorting for the views that your code is accessing. It would be far more ambitious to try to actually write code to set up the collation in the view from scratch.
(BTW: A template is a separate file, usually an NTF, from which an NSF can inherit design elements, including column sorting for views. But this is not a runtime relationship as far as your code will be concerned. Templates are not relevant here.)
Has anyone been able to use a SubSonic generated collection as a "business object datasource" with Microsoft report (rdlc)? I have generated the SubSonic class code but for some reason the report datasource window is not seeing the class as a potential object collection datasource.
Is there something I need to do for this to work?
Thanks in advance...vsdotnetguy
I have loaded Reporting Service reports from business objects before (loaded via NHibernate -- which isn't exact but close enough for argument sake).
Couple of key points:
1. return your objects in List, even if you are only returning one object.
2. You want FLAT business objects. You might have to go thru a DTO transformation to get that. By flat, I mean the most complex property you can have in a business object is a string and a number (int, decimal, double). If you are expecting to grab a value like this:
myObject.Customer.Name, forget it. Create a CustomerName property.
3. If you need data from multiple places try to break up your reports into subreports. You key off of the datasource key to figure out what data to return to the report.
I'll add more as I remember, it has been a few months since I've done this.
Yes I've done it, you should only need to make sure the project containing your reports references your SubSonic project (obviously :).
Sometimes I've also found that Visual Studio can get a little borked and require a restart before repopulating the datasource window with SubSonic generated objects.
Thx Chris and Adam,
Here is the answer I found.
In my case I wanted to dynamically set the main and subreport datasources at run time using the SubSonic object collections. However, I also wanted to design the report layout using drag and drop of the datasource columns.
But I was unable to design the report using drag&drop because none of my SubSonic collections were showing up in the Website Data Sources.
However, later while I was doing some control binding using the ObjectDataSource control, I noticed that NOW my SubSonic collections were showing up in the Website DataSources window and I could drag and drop the report layout.
So if you are dynamically setting the report datasources at run time and ARE NOT using the ObjectDataSource control already in your project, you MUST add a dummy ObjectDataSource control to one of your aspx pages. This will then make the business object datasources show up in the report designer.
