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

class Program
{
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        try
        {
           // create a QMS API client
           IQMS2 apiClient = new QMS2Client();

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

           //get all QDS services
           ServiceInfo[] qdsServices = apiClient.GetServices(ServiceTypes.QlikViewDistributionService);

           //get all distribution groups for the first QDS in the list
           IEnumerable<string>  groups = apiClient.GetDistributionGroups(qdsServices[0].ID);

           Console.WriteLine("There are " + groups.Count() + " distribution groups for the QDS with the ID: " + qdsServices[0].ID);
        }
        catch(Exception e)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("An error occured: " + e.Message);
        }
        // wait for user to press any key
        Console.ReadLine();
    }
}
