 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);
         }
