The example is a handler of the OnClick event for the Button1 button.

Sub Button1OnClick(Sender: Object; Args: IMouseEventArgs);
Var
    Result: IMetabaseObjectDescriptor;
    Key: Integer;
Begin
    Key := UiModel1.Object.Key;
    // Execute function
    Result := GetSmhDesc(Key, "GetCubeModelDesc");
    // Display value
    WinApplication.InformationBox(Result.Name + " (" + Result.Id + ")");
End Sub Button1OnClick;

Function GetSmhDesc(Key: Integer; Plugin: String): IMetabaseObjectDescriptor;
Var
    Desc, Result: IMetabaseObjectDescriptor;
    Target: IUiCommandTarget;
    Context: IUiCommandExecutionContext;
Begin
    Desc := MetabaseClass.Active.Item(Key);
    // Get the Ms plugin
    Target := WinApplication.Instance.GetPluginTarget("Ms");
    // Create a context to execute a command
    Context := Target.CreateExecutionContext;
    // Send command parameter
    Context.Data := Desc;
    // Execute the command
    Result := Target.Execute(Plugin, Context) As IMetabaseObjectDescriptor;
    Return Result;
End Function GetSmhDesc;

After executing the example, clicking the Button1 button displays a message with information about name and identifier of the time series database that contains a modeling container with the specified model.
