The Flow TM1 API Starter Kit - using the TM1 API from .NET
Posted: Fri Jan 11, 2013 3:47 am
I just put up a new article on the Flow Blog about working with the native TM1 API from C#. It contains a link to the Flow TM1 API Starter Kit, which is a Visual Studio 2010 project file containing a working example of an application connecting to TM1 and performing some basic operations.
Note that this does not use the .NET API, which only has a limited subset of the functions supported by TM1, but the full C API.
If you're interested in creating applications for TM1 using .NET, but got stuck trying to link the right dlls and import the correct function signatures, this article is designed to give you a leg up. My hope is that this will get more people writing .NET applications with TM1, resulting in some new cool applications getting out into the community.
Feel free to check out the blog post here. The sample project is linked at the bottom of the article.
If you have any questions or issues getting started with it, feel free to post here, or on the blog itself.
