Example

This example code inserts users jdoe and wsmith as new users.

string xml = string.Empty;
 
using ( HttpClient client = new HttpClient() )
{
   // optionally, you can use json as the response type
   string ido = "UserNames";
   string requestUrl = $"http://localhost/IDORequestService/MGRESTService.svc/xml/{ido}/additems";
 
   // provide token in the Authorization header
   client.DefaultRequestHeaders.TryAddWithoutValidation(
      "Authorization",
      "b/XdI6IQzCviZOGJ0E+002…5vl903teP0jSDwkFs" );
 
   List<IDOUpdateItem> idoItems = new List<IDOUpdateItem>();
 
   UpdateProperty username = new UpdateProperty
   {
      Name = "Username",
      Value = "jdoe",
      IsNull = false,
      Modified = true
   };
 
   UpdateProperty userDesc = new UpdateProperty
   {
      Name = "UserDesc",
      Value = "John Doe",
      IsNull = false,
      Modified = true
   };
 
   IDOUpdateItem idoItem = new IDOUpdateItem
   {
      Action = UpdateAction.Insert,
      Properties = new[] { username, userDesc },
      ItemId = "PBT=[UserNames]"
   };
   idoItems.Add( idoItem );
 
   username = new UpdateProperty
   {
      Name = "Username",
      Value = "wsmith",
      IsNull = false,
      Modified = true
   };
 
   userDesc = new UpdateProperty
   {
      Name = "UserDesc",
      Value = "Will Smith",
      IsNull = false,
      Modified = true
   };
 
   idoItem = new IDOUpdateItem
   {
      Action = UpdateAction.Insert,
      Properties = new[] { username, userDesc },
      ItemId = "PBT=[UserNames]"
   };
   idoItems.Add( idoItem );
   
   XDocument xdoc = new XDocument( new XDeclaration( "1.0", "utf-8", "yes" ) );
   using ( XmlWriter writer = xdoc.CreateWriter() )
   {
      DataContractSerializer serializer = new DataContractSerializer( idoItems.GetType() );
      serializer.WriteObject( writer, idoItems );
   }
 
   // pass the List<IDOUpdateItem> as the request data and send the insert request
   HttpResponseMessage response = client.PostAsync( requestUrl, new StringContent( xdoc.ToString(), Encoding.UTF8, "application/xml" ) ).Result;
 
   using ( HttpContent content = response.Content )
   {
      Task<string> result = content.ReadAsStringAsync();
      xml = result.Result;
   }
}

You can use these classes to construct the Request Data as demonstrated in the previous code snippets:

public class IDOUpdateItem
{
   public UpdateAction Action { get; set; }
   public string ItemId { get; set; }
   public int ItemNo { get; set; }
   public UpdateProperty[] Properties { get; set; }
   public UpdateLocking UpdateLocking { get; set; }
}
 
public class UpdateProperty
{
   public string Name { get; set; }
   public string Value { get; set; }
   public string OriginalValue { get; set; }
   public bool Modified { get; set; }
   public bool IsNull { get; set; }
}
 
public enum UpdateAction
{
   Insert = 1,
   Update = 2,
   Delete = 4
}
 
public enum UpdateLocking
{
   Row = 0,
   Property = 1
}
