I worked before with "Microsoft Commerce server 2007" and used it's Catalog API to get products data in my web site.
But I have a requirement to make a windows service that uses the commerce product catalog data, but I don't know how to adjust the APP.Config of this service to get data.
Every time I try commerce code it returns Null "CommerceContext.Current"== null
any Idea or sample config?
You need to create a CatalogContext object in Local or Agent mode. See How to Create a CatalogContext Object for details.
CommerceContext.Current is only non-null when running in the context of an ASP.NET web application.

It is a first time that I am using ASP.NET Boilerplate for API development. There are default features like multi tenancy and role management which I don’t want to use in the template. When creating a new project. in the project wizard I am choosing “Single Page Web Application” and I am unchecking the “Include login, register, user, role and tenant management pages” box. But when I do this, it is removing the connection between Swagger and Application Service. So the methods I am writing in Application Service are not being translated as API endpoints automatically.
Ideally, I want this: ABP Template + Empty API solution + swagger connection.
Am I missing something? Could you point me in the right direction? Thanks in advance.
"The methods that I am writing in the Application Service are not automatically translated as API endpoints." Regarding that, the app service should be translated automatically in the version that does not include login and roles, check the documentation. Regarding the swagger, you have to add it manually.
My requirement is to develop an application that should
create static html files
create a new site (with the static html files in #1) in Azure App Service or Hosting server.
i.e for #2,I need to automate the Publish activity that's done from Visual Studio to take it to the public server. So say on a Button click, the app should use the required details like credentials, app service\hosting provider details... and create a new site there.
My Query
Is this possible?
If so please do share it with me or send me some pointers on it.
Else let me know how I can implement this.
You could create azure app service using rest api with this link.
Also, you could deploy webapp to azure app service with ZIP or WAR file. Please refer to this one.
The required details like credentials, app service\hosting provider details you need to manually fill down to achieve deploy webapp function.
I'm building an application an i need access to my magento database, so i can get sales and warehouse info live in my application.
Is there a possibility to do that?
You should use Magento REST API
I need to create a service reference to the Magento 2 SOAP API in my Visual Studio project. So I've created an Integration in the Magento backend, gave it All access and activated it.
But when I try to access the WSDL for (ie. the customer API) at http://my.magento/soap/default?wsdl&services=customerCustomerRepositoryV1, I get the exception:
Consumer is not authorized to access %resources
Ok, I get it. I need my access token to access these specific 'admin' API's. Because public API's like 'quoteGuestCartRepositoryV1' do work. When I get the full API list at http://my.magento/soap/default?wsdl_list=1 it also only lists public/guest API's.
No problem so far, but when I try to add the 'customerCustomerRepositoryV1' as a service reference in Visual Studio, of course the authorized exception is thrown. But I have no way of actually adding the access token to the header there.
Is there a way to get access to all WSDL's anonymously? Magento 1.x used to allow this.
Yes, it is a Magento error. The WSDL is not available anonymous anymore since a recent Magento release. I think it's a stupid decision by the devs.

We have three servers that all share the same database. One server is internet facing.
I have a web page in an IFRAME in CRM that talks to the CRM web service using the standard method of connecting for on-premise. When this IFRAME is displayed through the IFD with users logged in through the forms authentication element, you are asked for login credentials.
How do I get around this?
EDIT
The IFRAME that targets the CRM service is on four servers. Two of the servers are used for IFD and On-premise use. The other two are for on-premise only. They are all in the same domain. All of the users are internal users that can log in through the web if they are using a customer's computer or a machine in an Internet cafe and therefore can't use the VPN.
A few questions to better understand you issue. Is the iframe which targets CrmService on the same IFD server? Is the IFD server on the same domain as the rest of the servers? When you say users are logged in are you refereeing to local domain users or external users?
I suspect the problem is not the services, but the IFrame. When you authenticate to MSCRM via on-premise you are doing Windows Authentication, and when you should the IFrame that authentication request is done again. Since the browser knows everything it needs this is all handled transparently.
When using IFD, you are not using authentication on the web server level - you are doing it using forms based which is on the application level. You IFrame though is still wanting authentication, and thus the iframe prompts for authentication.
If you were having a service problem, the IFrame would display and what ever action triggers the service call would fail with a 400 or 500 error.
So the question comes in how do you build a web page that can cater for windows authentication and forms based? Well that is easy in MSCRM, first make sure you are not running authentication on the web page - set it to anonymous. That ensures no more popups, then make sure you use the CrmAuthenticationToken code to get the token and use that for all calls. You should not be setting the .Credentials property of the service itself.
Assuming you're deploying your page within the CRM website (and not its own virtual directory) then here is pointing you at the SDK article for what Robert mentioned:
See the SDK topic titled: Authentication from an ASPX Page.
In my experience you should always use the CRMImpersonator in your web pages within the CRM website.
Now if you've got your own page running on its own website:
You'll want to see the Discovery service and obtaining a CRM Ticket for accessing the services.
