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();

            Guid qvsId = new Guid("c7c66836-f00b-47c4-8099-23ff7f178423"); // The originating QVS ID.
            Dictionary<string, List<string>> docsAndUsers = apiClient.GetQVSDocumentsAndUsers(qvsId, QueryTarget.Resource);
            foreach(string doc in docsAndUsers.Keys)
            {
                Console.Write("Document: " + doc + ", User(s):");
                foreach(string user in docsAndUsers[doc])
