    Hey Everyone,

    Being a long time 2010 and 2013 Project Server developer I need help getting into the REST way of doing things. I understand CSOM well, but it is buggy (see my other post here: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/bc46720c-3da6-4ef9-b3ae-5c3c43bc42d5/csom-bugs?forum=project2010custprog ). So I need to find out how to use oData for:

    1) Creating projects

    2) Updating projects (owner, name etc.)

    3) Updating projects (custom fields)

    I have searched high and low on MSDN for any sort of example and there isn't any. Would anyone be able to show me an example? (I am using c#, if you post a JSON or XML REST query, try to show me how I would send that using c#).

    Thanks,

    120811049008

    The odata API cannot be used to "write", it is only a read-only api optimized for performance.

    In order to write data you will need to use CSOM, JSOM, PSI or raw REST api (e.g. put/gets into https port)
