Connect to TFS 2010 using object model

Question

Hi all,

I'm trying to connect to tfs 2010 server using code below but got an exception "The request failed with HTTP status 400: Bad Request.". Am I missing something, please advise.

/// <summary>
    /// Connects to Team Foundation Server.
    /// </summary>
    public bool Connect()
    {
      _server = new TfsTeamProjectCollection(new Uri(ServerURL), new UICredentialsProvider());
      _versionControl = (VersionControlServer)_server.GetService(typeof(VersionControlServer));
      try
      {
        _server.EnsureAuthenticated();
        return true;
      }
      catch
      {
        return false;
      }

      
    }

Answer 1

What Url are you connecting with it shuld be in the follwoing format http://Server:8080/tfs/CollectionName

If you simply want to connect as the current user, you dont need an UICredentialProvider.

 

Answer 2

Thanks... it's url format found issue. I was passing http://server/tfs:8080 instead of http://server:8080/tfs.
