Fax VB.NET – Retrieve Outbound Fax Image with GetFaxImage

These project files allow you to retrieve the image of an outbound (previously-submitted) fax with VB.NET. This is done using the GetFaxImage method.

The fax VB.NET snippet below demonstrates retrieval of an outbound fax image using GetFaxImage.

Sub Main()
        Dim username As String = "my username"
        Dim password As String = "my password"
        Dim transactionID As Long = 196805130
        Dim imageData() As Byte = Nothing   ' the image data will be retrieved to here

        Dim ifws As New interfax.InterFax()
        Dim st As Long = ifws.GetFaxImage(username, password, transactionID, imageData)
        If st = 0 Then
            IO.File.WriteAllBytes("c:\temp\1.tif", imageData)
            Console.WriteLine("Image properly saved to file. Total bytes: " & imageData.Length)
        Else
            Console.WriteLine("An error occured; result is: " & st)
        End If
    End Sub
