Return Value

FRSHEATFetchSRValListDataResponse object, defined as follows:

public class FRSHEATFetchSRValListDataResponse

    {

public string status { get; set; }

public string exceptionReason { get; set; }

public List<FRSHEATValListValue> validationValuesList { get; set; }

public string strRecId;

public string strStoredValue;

public string strDisplayValue;

    }

The FRSHEATValListValue class has the following fields:

•strRecId: The RecID corresponding to the validation list.

•strStoredValue: The stored value of the validation list record.  For example, "ASimon" if the validation list record corresponds to the "Ashley Simon" employee record.

Example

// Fetch the matching validation list records for requester, in the
// "Domain Password Reset" request offering

 

// Since the requester is constrained by the "RequesterDeparment" parameter,
// this needs to be specified as an input parameter to the web method

 

string offeringName = "Domain Password Reset";

string paramName = "Requester";

 

FRSHEATDepValItem depValItem = newFRSHEATDepValItem()

            {

                strParName = "RequesterDepartment",

                strParValue = "IT"

            };

 

FRSHEATFetchSRValListDataResponse validationValuesResponse = frSvc.FetchServiceReqValidationListData(authSessionKey, tenantId, offeringName, paramName, depValItem, subStrQuery);

FRSHEATValListValue[] valListValues;

 

if (validationValuesResponse.status == "Success")

            {

                valListValues = validationValuesResponse.validationValuesList;

 

Console.WriteLine("Here are the matching validation list records:\n");

foreach (FRSHEATValListValue valListItem in valListValues)

                {

Console.WriteLine("Stored Value: \"{0}\"\t\tDisplay Value: \"{1}\"", valListItem.strStoredValue, valListItem.strDisplayValue);

                }

            }
