C# client

The C# client is compatible with .NET Framework version 4.0 and above.

Overview

To use our C# API to inject external data into NeoLoad, use our DLLs to create Context and Entry objects as explained in Create the C# Data Exchange API client.

First instantiate a DataExchangeAPIClient providing a URL, Context, and API key.

Then call the method addEntry() to send one Entry at a time or the method addEntries() to send more than one Entry at a time.

Configure the project

In a Visual Studio project, it is necessary to include the DLL files available either:

• In the NuGet website
• In the NeoLoad installation directory:
  • in the <install-dir>\api\Data Exchange API Client\Csharp folder
  • in the <install-dir>\api\Common\Csharp folder
