getDescendants .NET API

Hi everyone,
I'm using this method "obj.GetDescendants("CGroup, "")" but if there are more than 10000 items it doesn't work ('Limit of 10000 objects for ListObjects reached. Specify a filter to reduce the number of objects returned.'). How can I write an alternative function that returns me the same result?

I recommend using .GetChildren instead, to get direct descendants. Then recursively call it on any children which are groups/instances/templates.

Could use SQL, either through standard ODBC or via the .NET API.

Steve posted an example of via the .NET API at https://community.se.com/t5/EcoStruxure-Geo-SCADA-Expert/NET-API-to-query-ClearSCADA-View/m-p/200560
