### Basic Usage ###
The DeviceAtlas Cloud Client API can be used as follows:
How to import the Cloud Client API.
```csharp```
using Mobi.Mtld.DeviceAtlas.Cloud;
Get an instance of the API (singleton), set your DeviceAtlas licence key and
get the properties.
```csharp```
Client client = Client.GetInstance();
client.SetLicenceKey(LICENCE);
Detecting based on a set of HTTP headers:
```csharp```
Dictionary<string, string> headers = new Dictionary<string, string>();
headers.Add("user-agent", "THE USER AGENT ...");
// add more headers ...
// must be inside a try catch block
try {
/* get the API instance (singleton) */
Client client = Client.GetInstance();
/* set your licence key */
client.SetLicenceKey(licenceKey);
/* get device properties - by passing HTTP headers */
Hashtable result = client.GetDeviceDataByHeaders(headers);
Hashtable properties = (Hashtable)results[Client.KEY_PROPERTIES];
} catch (Exception ex) {
// handle the errors...
}
Detecting based on a user agent string:
```csharp```
string userAgent = "THE USER AGENT ...";
// must be inside a try catch block
try {
/* get the API instance (singleton) */
Client client = Client.GetInstance();
/* set your licence key */
client.SetLicenceKey(licenceKey);
/* get device properties - by passing a user agent string */
Hashtable result = client.GetDeviceDataByUserAgent(userAgent);
Hashtable properties = (Hashtable)results[Client.KEY_PROPERTIES];
} catch (Exception ex) {
// handle the errors...
}
* Use the device properties:
```csharp```
if (properties.ContainsKey("mobileDevice") && properties["mobileDevice"]) {
// example 1: Get the screen width for image optimization
int displayWidth = properties.ContainsKey("displayWidth")?
properties["displayWidth"]: 100;
// example 2: Get the device vendor name
string vendor = properties.ContainsKey("vendor")?
properties["vendor"]: "";
// example 3: Touch screen optimization
bool useBiggerIcons = properties.ContainsKey("touchScreen")?
properties["touchScreen"]: false;
// example 4: Send Geo Location JS to client?
bool supportsGeoLocation = properties.ContainsKey("js.geoLocation")?
properties["js.geoLocation"]: false;
}
See the list of all property names here:

The availability of a property depends on the device and your licence,
before accessing a property always check if it exists in the set or not.
#### Proxy ####
The following code example shows how to set a WebProxy instance to the API.
```csharp```
// must be inside a try catch block
try {
/* get the API instance (singleton) */
Client client = Client.GetInstance();
/* set your licence key */
client.SetLicenceKey(licenceKey);
/* set your WebProxy instance */
client.SetProxy(proxy);
...
} catch (Exception ex) {
// handle the errors...
}
