In the example below, a list of tasks is retrieved for a known source document on a remote QlikView Management Service. Each task is imported to a document on the "local" QMS.

The service key injection is assumed to be handled behind the scenes. For an example of how to inject the service key, see Samples.

    using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using QMSAPI;

class Program
{
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        try
        {
            // create a QMS API client
            IQMS apiClient = new QMSClient();

            //retrieve a time limited service key
            ServiceKeyClientMessageInspector.ServiceKey = apiClient.GetTimeLimitedServiceKey();

            //Find a the remote QMS service.
            ServiceInfo remoteQMSService = apiClient.GetServices(ServiceTypes.RemoteQlikViewManagementService).FirstOrDefault();

            //Find a local QDS service
            ServiceInfo localQDS = apiClient.GetServices(ServiceTypes.QlikViewDistributionService).FirstOrDefault();

            //Get the tasks of a remote document.
            Guid remoteDocId = new Guid ("12a32214-1122-112a-8099-8765ce564112"); // The remote document ID.
            List<TaskInfo> taskInfos = apiClient.RemoteGetTaskListForDocID(remoteQMSService.ID, remoteDocId);

            //Get a local document.
            Guid localDocId = new Guid("c7c66836-f00b-47c4-8099-23ff7f178423"); // The local document ID.
            DocumentNode destinationDocument = apiClient.GetSourceDocuments(localQDS.ID).Where(dn => dn.ID == localDocId).FirstOrDefault();

            if (destinationDocument != null)
            {
                //Apply each remote task on the local document.
                foreach(TaskInfo taskInfo in taskInfos) {
                    apiClient.ImportDocumentTask(remoteQMSService.ID, taskInfo.ID, localQDS.ID, destinationDocument);
                }
            }
        }
        catch (Exception ex)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("An exception occurred: " + ex.Message);
        }
        // wait for user to press any key
        Console.ReadLine();
    }
}
