NetSuite custom record search through suiteTalk using C#

We are having an issue with searching a custom record through SuiteTalk. Below is a sample of what we are calling. The issue we are having is in trying to set up the search using the internalId of the record. The issue here lies in in our initial development account the internal id of this custom record is 482 but when we deployed it through the our bundle the record was assigned with the internal Id of 314. It would stand to reason that this internal id is not static in a site per site install so we wondered what property to set up to reference the custom record. When we made the record we assigned its “scriptId’ to be 'customrecord_myCustomRecord' but through suitetalk we do not have a “scriptId”. What is the best way for us to allow for this code to work in all environments and not a specific one? And if so, could you give an example of how it might be used.
Code (C#) that we are attempting to make the call from. We are using the 2013.2 endpoints at this time.
private SearchResult NetSuite_getPackageContentsCustomRecord(string sParentRef)
{
List<object> PackageSearchResults = new List<object>();
CustomRecord custRec = new CustomRecord();
CustomRecordSearch customRecordSearch = new CustomRecordSearch();
SearchMultiSelectCustomField searchFilter1 = new SearchMultiSelectCustomField();
searchFilter1.internalId = "customrecord_myCustomRecord_sublist";
searchFilter1.#operator = SearchMultiSelectFieldOperator.anyOf;
searchFilter1.operatorSpecified = true;
ListOrRecordRef lRecordRef = new ListOrRecordRef();
lRecordRef.internalId = sParentRef;
searchFilter1.searchValue = new ListOrRecordRef[] { lRecordRef };
CustomRecordSearchBasic customRecordBasic = new CustomRecordSearchBasic();
customRecordBasic.recType = new RecordRef();
customRecordBasic.recType.internalId = "314"; // "482"; //THIS LINE IS GIVING US THE TROUBLE
//customRecordBasic.recType.name = "customrecord_myCustomRecord";
customRecordBasic.customFieldList = new SearchCustomField[] { searchFilter1 };
customRecordSearch.basic = customRecordBasic;
// Search for the customer entity
SearchResult results = _service.search(customRecordSearch);
return results;
}

I searched all over for a solution to avoid hardcoding internalId's. Even NetSuite support failed to give me a solution. Finally I stumbled upon a solution in NetSuite's knowledgebase, getCustomizationId.
This returns the internalId, scriptId and name for all customRecord's (or customRecordType's in NetSuite terms! Which is what made it hard to find.)
public string GetCustomizationId(string scriptId)
{
// Perform getCustomizationId on custom record type
CustomizationType ct = new CustomizationType();
ct.getCustomizationTypeSpecified = true;
ct.getCustomizationType = GetCustomizationType.customRecordType;
// Retrieve active custom record type IDs. The includeInactives param is set to false.
GetCustomizationIdResult getCustIdResult = _service.getCustomizationId(ct, false);
foreach (var customizationRef in getCustIdResult.customizationRefList)
{
if (customizationRef.scriptId == scriptId) return customizationRef.internalId;
}
return null;
}

you can make the internalid as an external property so that you can change it according to environment.
The internalId will be changed only when you install first time into an environment. when you deploy it into that environment, the internalid will not change with the future deployments unless you choose Add/Rename option during deployment.

Access the Source Control Explorer in TFS from C#.net code

Here is the code which I have written to access the Projects and the team, but it shows some error. I want to access the project and then the Source Code present in the Source Control Explorer in the Project/Team.
Uri _serverUri = new Uri("MyURI");
string _teamProjectName = "MyProject";
TfsTeamProjectCollection collection =
TfsTeamProjectCollectionFactory.GetTeamProjectCollection(_serverUri);
// Retrieve the project URI. Needed to enumerate teams.
var css4 = collection.GetService<ICommonStructureService>();
ProjectInfo projectInfo = css4.GetProjectFromName(_teamProjectName);
// Retrieve a list of all teams on the project.
TfsTeamService teamService = collection.GetService<TfsTeamService>();
var allTeams = teamService.QueryTeams(projectInfo.Uri);
allTeams.ToList().ForEach
(
allteams => { Console.WriteLine(allteams); });
The error which it shows is "The type or namespace 'Core' does not exist in the namespace Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Server
I also want to access the source control, so if anyone can help me with both of my issues.

How to get all the users in Zendesk

I have created users using CreateOrUpdateUser() method but i was unable to fetch all the users from zendesk. I am getting null for "oListUser" also I tried to fetch user list for Organization but for that also i am getting null.Any help would be appreciated. There is no issue with the connection.
Code:
ZenDeskApi.ZenDeskApi oZen = new ZenDeskApi.ZenDeskApi("https://waresolution.zendesk.com", "j#se.com", "87ggh76IO");
List<User> oListUser = oZen.GetUsers();
User oUsers = new ZenDeskApi.Model.User();
oUsers.Email = "r#se.com";
oUsers.IsVerified = true;
oUsers.Name = "R r";
oUsers..........// Other properties
int a = oZen.CreateOrUpdateUser(oUsers);
List<Organization> oOrg = oZen.GetOgranizations();
foreach (var orgItem in oOrg)
{
int orgId = orgItem.Id;
}

Take a look at this zendesk api client for C#.net on Github. See the JUSTEAT blog for more details. You can use this client to get all users like this:
Create a client:
IZendeskClient client = new ZendeskClient(
new Uri("my-zendesk-api-host-endpoint"),
"my-zendesk-username",
"my-zendesk-token"
);
Then you can use the Search resource to search all users:
var result = client.Search.Find(new ZendeskQuery<User>().WithCustomFilter("y", "x"));
You can download the code as a Nuget here

I am using ZendeskApi_v2 and I am able to get all the users using api as follows:
var userList = api.Users.GetAllUsers();
Here userList is GroupUserReponse.I doubt whether we have any method GetUsers().Atleast its not available in the version which I am using.Once you get the response you can iterate through it.
I see that this question is related to ZenDeskApi which is available at this location:
https://github.com/eneifert/ZenDeskApi.
Sorry,I have not worked on it and tried this.

Not sure if you got a response to this but for anyone else looking for info on the API:
Try instead of:
ZenDeskApi.ZenDeskApi oZen = new ZenDeskApi.ZenDeskApi("https://waresolution.zendesk.com", "j#se.com", "87ggh76IO");
ZenDeskApi.ZenDeskApi oZen = new ZenDeskApi("https://waresolution.zendesk.com", "j#se.com", "87ggh76IO");
Also, to get a paginated list of 100 users instead of the group response, just call:
var zendeskUsers = oZen.Users.GetAllUsers().Users;

How can I programmatically checkin code in TFS with policy override?

I'm trying to checkin code from a c# program in a part of TFS repository which will trigger a gated checkin build and also a continuous integration build.
This is my code so far:
public static void Checkin(string path, string comment)
{
var wsInfo = Workstation.Current.GetLocalWorkspaceInfo(path);
var tfs = TfsTeamProjectCollectionFactory.GetTeamProjectCollection(wsInfo.ServerUri);
tfs.Connect(ConnectOptions.None);
var vcs = tfs.GetService<VersionControlServer>();
var ws = vcs.GetWorkspace(path);
var fullPath = Path.GetFullPath(path);
var change = ws.GetPendingChangesEnumerable().Where(p => p.LocalItem == fullPath).ToArray();
ws.CheckIn(change.ToArray(), comment);
tfs.Dispose();
}
what is basically happening is that I get a GatedCheckinException say that there is an affected build defintion.
I would like to do the checkin with the commonly known bypass to avoid triggering the gated checkin. I've been struggling with the altenate Checkin functions without success.
Any idea?
UPDATE:
Thanks Aghilas Yakoub for the link.
For completeness, here is the code to do the checkin with override that worked for me:
var wip = new WorkspaceCheckInParameters(change, comment)
{
OverrideGatedCheckIn = ((CheckInOptions2)vcs.SupportedFeatures & CheckInOptions2.OverrideGatedCheckIn) == CheckInOptions2.OverrideGatedCheckIn,
PolicyOverride = new PolicyOverrideInfo("Check-in from the build.", null)
};
ws.CheckIn(wip);

I suggest you this sample of code http://blogs.infosupport.com/override-gated-check-in-using-the-tfs-api/

Using TFS API, how can I find the comments which were made on a Code Review?

I'm trying to figure out a way to find details about a Code Review Request / Response item in TFS2012.
I can query for all Code Review Request/Response items in the following way:
const string TfsUri = "http://mytfsserver:8080/tfs/Default ProjectCollection";
var tfs = new TfsTeamProjectCollection(new Uri(TfsUri));
var store = tfs.GetService<WorkItemStore>();
var versionStore = tfs.GetService<Microsoft.TeamFoundation.VersionControl.Client.VersionControlServer>();
var queryText = "SELECT [System.Id],
FROM WorkItems
WHERE [System.WorkItemType] = 'Code Review Request'
or [System.WorkItemType] = 'Code Review Response'";
var query = new Query(store, queryText);
var result = query.RunQuery().OfType<WorkItem>();
This gives me a list of WorkItem types. When I loop over the result.FirstOrDefault().Fields property, it does give me some usefull information about the ShelveSet which is related to the Code Review, the "Associated Context". Using this information, I can query for the ShelveSet:
var versionStore = tfs.GetService<VersionControlServer>();
var shelveset = versionStore.QueryShelvesets("someCodeReviewId_xxxx","someUserName");
this gives me a ShelveSet item, but that's where I get stuck.
I've looked into the Microsoft.TeamFoundation.CodeReview namespace provided by both Microsoft.TeamFoundation.CodeReview.Components and Microsoft.TeamFoundation.CodeReview.Controls libraries, but this doesn't help me further either.
My question is: How can I find the actual comments made on a ShelveSet during a Code Review (both General comments and File comments) through the TFS API?

We have a new requirement to pull code review comments from TFS and here is a short example of what we implemented. The workItemId has to be queried through another method. You can even look it up in Visual Studio or through a TFS query in the UI. This is a small subset of what is available and what we are using. I found this link to be helpful after digging through MSDN.
public List<CodeReviewComment> GetCodeReviewComments(int workItemId)
{
List<CodeReviewComment> comments = new List<CodeReviewComment>();
Uri uri = new Uri(URL_TO_TFS_COLLECTION);
TeamFoundationDiscussionService service = new TeamFoundationDiscussionService();
service.Initialize(new Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Client.TfsTeamProjectCollection(uri));
IDiscussionManager discussionManager = service.CreateDiscussionManager();
IAsyncResult result = discussionManager.BeginQueryByCodeReviewRequest(workItemId, QueryStoreOptions.ServerAndLocal, new AsyncCallback(CallCompletedCallback), null);
var output = discussionManager.EndQueryByCodeReviewRequest(result);
foreach (DiscussionThread thread in output)
{
if (thread.RootComment != null)
{
CodeReviewComment comment = new CodeReviewComment();
comment.Author = thread.RootComment.Author.DisplayName;
comment.Comment = thread.RootComment.Content;
comment.PublishDate = thread.RootComment.PublishedDate.ToShortDateString();
comment.ItemName = thread.ItemPath;
comments.Add(comment);
}
}
return comments;
}
static void CallCompletedCallback(IAsyncResult result)
{
// Handle error conditions here
}
public class CodeReviewComment
{
public string Author { get; set; }
public string Comment { get; set; }
public string PublishDate { get; set; }
public string ItemName { get; set; }
}

I don't have code examples, but according to this discussion, you should be able to get to code review comments with functionality in the Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Discussion.Client namespace.
Specifically the comments are accessible via the DiscussionThread class. And you should be able to query discussions using IDiscussionManager.
