I am interested in developing a Windows Forms application that periodically checks if my database has new entrances for a table that abstracts event scheduling.
If new events have been added to the database, my application should get those events and post them to the Office 365 Calendar.
I've been researching for a while and have not found a proper way to call Microsoft Graph API services from within a Windows Forms application.
Is it possible to do so?
There is a Microsoft Graph .Net Client Library available but you will first need to upgrade the version of .NET you're currently targeting to at least v4.5.
Alternatively, you can call into Microsoft Graph using either WebClient or HttpWebRequest. This will require you to construct all your calls and handle serialization/deserialization on your own however. You can find some additional details in this answer as well: HttpClient does not exist in .net 4.0: what can I do?
My guidance would be that unless you're very familiar with HTTP and Serialization, I would focus on upgrading your .NET target and use the SDK. Hand-crafting REST and OAUTH calls is typically not a very enjoyable experience.

I have a .Net Core 2.0 Web App that authenticates a user via ADAL and then adds/edits users in the tenant via Microsoft Graph. I'd like to make this App work with AAD B2C scenarios where this app manages all child tenants and their contents.
This seems to be possible only with Azure AD Graph. But the only libraries I managed to find don't seem to work with .Net Core.
Am I bad at searching or is applying the scenario impossible at this moment?
This sample project interacts with Azure AD Graph via HTTP Rest calls which is obviously supported in .net core 2.0. You can perform CRUD operations on users.
Managing the rest of B2C will come with Microsoft Graph which is not available yet.
Yes.
There is a fork of this project which targets .NET Core 3.0.

I'm planning to develop an adapter to access Siebel CRM data for my iOS app. I'm a new bee into this Siebel technology. I 've the Siebel CRM up an running in my workstation with sample db data. Could any one help me in getting this done? please excuse me if i've hosted this ques in a wrong stack.
There seems to be only 2 valid ways to do that:
SOAP webservices
REST api (but for this you need to have jboss or weblogic server: Sebel Bookshelf)
all other ways (Java Siebel Data Bean, COM interfaces, direct db access) got lots of issues: like issues with java on iOS ( I think it is not possible to run on iPhone), issues with legacy COM interfaces on iOS and numerous issues with direct db connection (complexity, stability, reusability...)
SOAP is out of the box on Siebel but requires more coding on iOS side, REST is easier on iOS or any webpage but requires some middlware:
JBoss/WebLogic + and RESTfull Siebel client form Siebel (available somewhere on their page)
java data bean app that produces REST
soap client that produces REST
I have worked on 2 projects involving iOS and Siebel: first one using JBoss and second project that used SOAP client which translated requests to/from REST. SOAP client approach was more stable (in comparison to RESTfull client from vendor - as the RESTfull client connects to Siebel internally using Java Data Bean) on Siebel 7.8.
In both cases we picked REST to talk to iOS as it allows easier deveopment on iOS side and also possiblity to easly utilize it in projects creating webpages to simplify/tune siebel GUI for different purpose..
If you're current system is sample db, then you have installed developer instance of Siebel. It uses a Sybase database. The server installation will use Oracle/MSSQL server. If you are ok with database connection, you can check that.
For Webservices, by default , Siebel does not support JSON/REST api. Only the older SOAP structure is supported. You will have to go through oracle bookshelves to setup an inbound webservice in Siebel.
But just to add, the latest version of Siebel's UI uses javascript/CSS, and runs on any browser, including IOs .
I am working in application have iOS native application as front end and c# .net as back-end.
Currently I am using WCF REST API for any communication between iOS client and server.
In my application there hare two types of user "Administrator" and "Simple User".
Application have some features those should enabled for admin user only and for "Simple User".
I just need help to create application structure so I can easily maintain features as per end user role.
Also, feature are dynamics and will be added new features in future.
If you are starting with a new service, try switching to Web Api instead of WCF REST API as it is no longer supported by Microsoft.

You could start using authorization module provided by Asp .Net. This is similar to what you use in an Asp .Net MVC application.
I was wondering if somebody could answer my questions as I have not used JTAPI before.
I am working on a project where the requirement is to click a link on the MVC website and integrate the call to AVAYA phone (i.e. make phone call using handset via the website)
I have also looked at the Microsoft TAPI but looks like there is no integration with Avaya available with TAPI.
Does anybody know how can I use JTAPI with .Net MVC ? I was assuming it would be an API which I can call from my website but it looks more complicated then it sounds.
Please suggest :)
You may use Avaya DMCC. It has an implementation for .NET
But beware the Avaya licensing policy! DMCC may require extra licenses.
To use JTAPI from ASP.NET you have to use Java classes from .NET
Can you use Java libraries in a VB.net program?

I would suggest create an Applet in JTAPI and then integrate in any webapplication whether php,.net I recently did the same thing for my PHP web application.
As #Krishna said with an Applet you could designe your solución, designe that i used to do... Buut now and Day Applets have less support over browsers and they have be come a problem than a solution. The way that i found to solve this issue was use HTML5 with Websocket. In this way i create a Windows Service or daemon (for Linux) to handle JTapi session and create a websocket server Layer, and implement the websocket to create the view int he Asp.net view.
Avaya AES does expose a basic web api providing some basic functionalities which you can call directly from your MVC application, but if you need something more advance, then arguably the best solution would be to build a small Java servlet which you will host on something like Tomcat or JBoss which will expose a SOAP or REST API, which you can call from your MVC app.
Is there any ToDo app that have .NET api for server side adding tasks.
Since there is no API for Goggle Tasks, I am looking for something that I can feed
from my own custom Tasking Web App.
Here in our company We are using our custom madded Web App for tasking and organizing our work.That app is written in .NET with C#. Now I looking for some Android apps for tasking which is able to on server side receive task by .NET and C# api.
Remeber The Milk looks nice and have IronCow as API but that app is commercial for android devices.
Is there others similar services as Rember The Milk that have this both, C# api for server side adding tasks and good looking Android client
In case you missed the Google I/O announcement, now there is an API for Google Tasks, with .NET and Android/Java support.
