public void CheckInResources(
    Guid[] array,
    bool force
)

Parameters

array
Type: []
Array of Guids of the resources to check in.

force
Type: System.Boolean
If true, forces a check-in.

Remarks

Project Server Permissions

If the current user has the resource checked out, they will be allowed to check in regardless of the ManageCheckIns setting.

Permission	Description
ManageCheckIns	Check in resources. Global permission.

Examples

The following example retrieves enterprise resources, creating several if they are not present, reads the resource using a resource filter, checks out each resource if available, updates the RES_CODE property of available resources, and checks the resources back in. It reports the before state, updates made, and the after state of the resources.

Please see Prerequisites for ASMX-Based Code Samples for critical information on running this code sample.

You can go to Admin/AddModifyUser.aspx on your Project Web App site to verify that the resource is not checked out in another session
