Conventions used

There are a number of text conventions used throughout this book.

CodeInText: Indicates code words in text, database table names, folder names, filenames, file extensions, pathnames, dummy URLs, user input, and Twitter handles. Here is an example: "Please refer to the Appendix1 folder on the GitHub repository for this book."

A block of code is set as follows:

req.open("GET", globalContext.getClientUrl() + "/api/data/v9.1/contacts(" + contactid + ")?$select=emailaddress1", true);

When we wish to draw your attention to a particular part of a code block, the relevant lines or items are set in bold:

if (this.readyState === 4) {
 req.onreadystatechange = null;
 if (this.status === 200) {
//code to process result
}}

Bold: Indicates a new term, an important word, or words that you see on screen. For example, words in menus or dialog boxes appear in the text like this. Here is an example: "Start Visual Studio, go to New Project, and select Console App."
