The fcSDK documentation for AutoDest does not currently have any usage examples.

Here is a link to our online docs  to follow along:

The fcSDK autodest is compatible with Clarify's AutoDest mechanism. I am not sure how familiar you are with AutoDest but I will assume you have read Clarify's AutoDest documentation.

AutoDest rules are stored in table_rule. The important fields in this table are : title, operation, and rule_text.

Title - usually maps to the object type the rule will be run against
Operation - Basically a name for the autodest rule
Rule_text - The destination rule to be tested.

The typical pattern for executing rules stored in the database is the following (Example is in C#):

using FChoice.Foundation.Clarify.AutoDest;
...
AutoDestRule r = AutoDestRule.RetrieveRule("case","EMC_DISPATCH");
string[] queues = r.EvaluateRule("5");

Note: This executes the "EMC_DISPATCH" operation against an object of type "case" then Evaluates the rule for an object with an id_number of "5" the queues varible will contain a string array of queues this rule could be dispatched into.

If you need to run/test rules that are not stored in the database you should use the RunRule() method:

string siteId = "1";
string ruleText = @"(cust_loc2case:title = ""Emailed Case"") -> ""Email"";";
string[] queues = AutoDestRule.RunRule("site", ruleText, siteId);

Note: The double quotes are only necessary for C#.
