Use the Temporal .NET SDK to develop Temporal Applications, connect to the Temporal Service, test Workflows and Activities, handle failures, send messages, and more.

Activity Definitions, Activity Execution, Timeouts, Standalone Activities, Dynamic Activities, and benign exceptions in the Temporal .NET SDK.

Define an Activity as a .NET method with the Activity attribute, give it a custom name, and keep argument Payloads inside the 2 MB and 4 MB gRPC limits.

Call an Activity from a .NET Workflow with ExecuteActivityAsync, set the required Schedule-To-Close or Start-To-Close Timeout, and await the result.

Set Activity Timeouts and a Retry Policy with the Temporal .NET SDK, override the next retry delay, and Heartbeat long-running Activities.

Asynchronously complete an Activity in Temporal. Follow simple steps to allow an Activity Function to return without the Activity Execution completing.

Mark expected or non-severe Activity errors as benign in .NET to reduce noise in logs, metrics, and OpenTelemetry traces.

This section explains how to implement best practices with the .NET SDK

Handle Cancellation in .NET Workflows and Activities, request Cancellation from a Client, and choose between Cancellation, termination, and reset.

Start a Child Workflow Execution and set a Parent Close Policy using Temporal .NET SDK. Discover methods like ExecuteChildWorkflowAsync and manage Workflow behaviors.

Connect a Temporal Client, start Workflow Executions, and get Workflow results with the Temporal .NET SDK.

Use Temporal's Continue-As-New in .NET to manage large Event Histories by atomically creating new Workflow Executions with the same Workflow Id and fresh parameters.

Learn how Temporal handles data through the Data Converter, including payload conversion, encryption, and large payload storage.

Debug Workflows in development and production environments using Temporal .NET SDK. Use logging, debugger, Web UI, CLI, replay, tracing, and more for efficient troubleshooting.

Register one Dynamic Activity per Worker with Activity(Dynamic = true) to handle Activity Types that match no other registered Activity.

This section explains Dynamic Workflows with the .NET SDK

Add contextual information to Workflows and events in the Temporal UI using the .NET SDK.

Handle errors with Temporal .NET SDK

Implement Interceptors in the Temporal .NET SDK to manage inbound and outbound SDK calls, enhance tracing, and add authorization to your Workflows and Activities.

Connect to a development Temporal Service or Temporal Cloud from .NET, set a Task Queue and Workflow Id, and get Workflow Execution results.

The .NET test-suite guide covers Workflow and integration testing for Temporal. It includes end-to-end, integration, and unit testing, emphasizing the use of the test server to optimize test execution.

Set a Durable Timer using the Temporal .NET SDK. Pause Workflow execution for days or months. Timers are persisted and highly resource-efficient using Workflow.DelayAsync.

Use the .NET SDK Patching API to safely deploy new code versions, handle deprecated patches, and manage Workflow activities using Temporal for long-running tasks.
