Codat.Platform 6.1.0

Codat.Platform

SDK Example Usage

Example

using Codat.Platform;
using Codat.Platform.Models.Components;
using Codat.Platform.Models.Requests;

var sdk = new CodatPlatform(authHeader: "Basic BASE_64_ENCODED(API_KEY)");

ListCompaniesRequest req = new ListCompaniesRequest() {
    Query = "id=e3334455-1aed-4e71-ab43-6bccf12092ee",
    OrderBy = "-modifiedDate",
    Tags = "region=uk && team=invoice-finance",
};

var res = await sdk.Companies.ListAsync(req);

// handle response

Retries

Some of the endpoints in this SDK support retries. If you use the SDK without any configuration, it will fall back to the default retry strategy provided by the API. However, the default retry strategy can be overridden on a per-operation basis, or across the entire SDK.

To change the default retry strategy for a single API call, simply pass a RetryConfig to the call:

using Codat.Platform;
using Codat.Platform.Models.Components;
using Codat.Platform.Models.Requests;

var sdk = new CodatPlatform(authHeader: "Basic BASE_64_ENCODED(API_KEY)");

ListCompaniesRequest req = new ListCompaniesRequest() {
    Query = "id=e3334455-1aed-4e71-ab43-6bccf12092ee",
    OrderBy = "-modifiedDate",
    Tags = "region=uk && team=invoice-finance",
};

var res = await sdk.Companies.ListAsync(
    retryConfig: new RetryConfig(
        strategy: RetryConfig.RetryStrategy.BACKOFF,
        backoff: new BackoffStrategy(
            initialIntervalMs: 1L,
            maxIntervalMs: 50L,
            maxElapsedTimeMs: 100L,
            exponent: 1.1
        ),
        retryConnectionErrors: false
    ),
    request: req
);

// handle response

If you'd like to override the default retry strategy for all operations that support retries, you can use the RetryConfig optional parameter when intitializing the SDK:

using Codat.Platform;
using Codat.Platform.Models.Components;
using Codat.Platform.Models.Requests;

var sdk = new CodatPlatform(
    retryConfig: new RetryConfig(
        strategy: RetryConfig.RetryStrategy.BACKOFF,
        backoff: new BackoffStrategy(
            initialIntervalMs: 1L,
            maxIntervalMs: 50L,
            maxElapsedTimeMs: 100L,
            exponent: 1.1
        ),
        retryConnectionErrors: false
    ),
    authHeader: "Basic BASE_64_ENCODED(API_KEY)"
);

ListCompaniesRequest req = new ListCompaniesRequest() {
    Query = "id=e3334455-1aed-4e71-ab43-6bccf12092ee",
    OrderBy = "-modifiedDate",
    Tags = "region=uk && team=invoice-finance",
};

var res = await sdk.Companies.ListAsync(req);

// handle response

Error Handling

CodatPlatformException is the base exception class for all HTTP error responses. It has the following properties:

Some exceptions in this SDK include an additional Payload field, which will contain deserialized custom error data when present. Possible exceptions are listed in the Error Classes section.

Example

using Codat.Platform;
using Codat.Platform.Models.Components;
using Codat.Platform.Models.Errors;
using Codat.Platform.Models.Requests;

var sdk = new CodatPlatform(authHeader: "Basic BASE_64_ENCODED(API_KEY)");

try
{
    ListCompaniesRequest req = new ListCompaniesRequest() {
        Query = "id=e3334455-1aed-4e71-ab43-6bccf12092ee",
        OrderBy = "-modifiedDate",
        Tags = "region=uk && team=invoice-finance",
    };

    var res = await sdk.Companies.ListAsync(req);

    // handle response
}
catch (CodatPlatformException ex)  // all SDK exceptions inherit from CodatPlatformException
{
    // ex.ToString() provides a detailed error message
    System.Console.WriteLine(ex);

    // Base exception fields
    HttpResponseMessage rawResponse = ex.RawResponse;
    HttpResponseHeaders headers = ex.Headers;
    int statusCode = ex.StatusCode;
    string? contentType = ex.ContentType;
    var responseBody = ex.Body;

    if (ex is Models.Errors.ErrorMessage) // different exceptions may be thrown depending on the method
    {
        // Check error data fields
        Models.Errors.ErrorMessagePayload payload = ex.Payload;
        long StatusCode = payload.StatusCode;
        string Service = payload.Service;
        // ...
    }

    // An underlying cause may be provided
    if (ex.InnerException != null)
    {
        Exception cause = ex.InnerException;
    }
}
catch (System.Net.Http.HttpRequestException ex)
{
    // Check ex.InnerException for Network connectivity errors
}

Error Classes

Primary exceptions:

• CodatPlatformException: The base class for HTTP error responses.
  • ErrorMessage: Your query parameter was not correctly formed.

<details><summary>Less common exceptions (2)</summary>

• System.Net.Http.HttpRequestException: Network connectivity error. For more details about the underlying cause, inspect the ex.InnerException.

• Inheriting from CodatPlatformException:

  • ResponseValidationError: Thrown when the response data could not be deserialized into the expected type. </details>

Server Selection

Override Server URL Per-Client

The default server can be overridden globally by passing a URL to the serverUrl: string optional parameter when initializing the SDK client instance. For example:

using Codat.Platform;
using Codat.Platform.Models.Components;
using Codat.Platform.Models.Requests;

var sdk = new CodatPlatform(
    serverUrl: "https://api.codat.io",
    authHeader: "Basic BASE_64_ENCODED(API_KEY)"
);

ListCompaniesRequest req = new ListCompaniesRequest() {
    Query = "id=e3334455-1aed-4e71-ab43-6bccf12092ee",
    OrderBy = "-modifiedDate",
    Tags = "region=uk && team=invoice-finance",
};

var res = await sdk.Companies.ListAsync(req);

// handle response

Authentication

Per-Client Security Schemes

This SDK supports the following security scheme globally:

To authenticate with the API the AuthHeader parameter must be set when initializing the SDK client instance. For example:

using Codat.Platform;
using Codat.Platform.Models.Components;
using Codat.Platform.Models.Requests;

var sdk = new CodatPlatform(authHeader: "Basic BASE_64_ENCODED(API_KEY)");

ListCompaniesRequest req = new ListCompaniesRequest() {
    Query = "id=e3334455-1aed-4e71-ab43-6bccf12092ee",
    OrderBy = "-modifiedDate",
    Tags = "region=uk && team=invoice-finance",
};

var res = await sdk.Companies.ListAsync(req);

// handle response
