We have a C# (winforms) application used for adding new starters to amongst other things AD, Exchange mailbox, sending emails to relevant people to say new starter arrived etc etc.

However, I’d like to extend this so that it also, where required, checks SFDC to see if there is a free licence available for their role.
If there IS then email SFDC admin to set them up (perhaps later do this in code as well).
If not, then notify different department of licence requirement.

Hoping to make a a C# call to the SFDC webservice.

I’ve looked through the documentation and can’t find how to do this.

    Open question or not, here’s something I think might steer you in the right direction – the UserLicense object

    http://www.salesforce.com/us/developer/docs/api/Content/sforce_api_objects_userlicense.htm

    See also the Profile object, which has a “UserType” field that shows license info

    http://www.salesforce.com/us/developer/docs/api/Content/sforce_api_objects_profile.htm

    I’ve not dabbled with the API (yet!) but I’d imagine that it is possible to enumerate collections of Users and/or Profiles
