So let's say I have a full url into a sharepoint website.
In the past when I wanted to get the weburl and doc url, I used the "url to web url" method of the Front Page Server Extensions. (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms460544.aspx).
So for example if you had a site at
http://webapp/site1/chidsite/a.doc
I want a method in CSOM that will return /site1/childsite as the weburl.
I see the Web.WebUrlFromPageUrlDirect() method in CSOM but I'm not sure I'm getting what I need back from it. In the Uri class I get back, would I use teh "AbsolutePath" property for the weburl?
What is the correct way to do this?
I also would like to get the docURL that is usually retrieved by a call to url to web url via frontpage extensions.
The fileurl will be the file location relative to the web site. So if the document is stored in the document library called "Documents", you will get a value of /Documents/file.ext.
Well, I've reverted to using the FrontPage extensions when doing URLToWebURL since I just wasn't sure what I was getting using CSOM methods. Though check the link below for answers I received elsewhere.

I'm trying to retrieve a document library by path using the Graph API and I'm not sure how to proceed.
The url to the library is for example the following:
https://hostname/sites/sitename/subsite/nameofdocumentlibrary/
I would like to have all the children through the Graph API. The issue: I know the document of the library but I don't know the ID of the library. It seems that it's possible to access it through the relative path but I'm not succeeding to it.
How do I do this?
My get url was the following:
/v1.0/sites/hostname:/sites/sitename/subsite/nameofdoccumentlibary/items
I'm always getting:
The provided path does not exist, or does not represent a site or UnknownError.
Any ideas ?
Try to use this:
GET https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/sites/{hostname},{spsite-id},{spweb-id}/lists/{list-id}
I don't check this in real life because I don't have SP Online. But it must working.
Use this link with SharePoint Graph API.
To get site id (site collection) you can go to your site collection and browse this endpoint:
https://hostname/sites/sitename/_api/site?$select=Id
To get web id (subsite) you can go to your subsite and browse this endpoint:
https://hostname/sites/sitename/subsite/_api/web?$select=Id
To get library Id you can just open Document Library Settings page. URL have library ID. You can transform it to real guid. Like this:
/_layouts/15/listedit.aspx?List=%7B603D7FA3-C801-46EB-A044-421234452901%7D
Must transformed to:
603D7FA3-C801-46EB-A044-421234452901
Following your feedback, I could now retrieve the document library using the display name (not the path in the url).
This is my request:
https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/sites/fullsubsiteid/lists/69369/items
69369 is my display Name here.
I can also use:
https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/sites/fullsubsiteid/lists/69369/drive
Now the first request, is returning an empty value array, while there is a "Documents" folder in the document library. How could I retrieve all folders/files etc in this document library? How can I use relative path?
Tx!
I found SPWeb.SiteLogoUrl and expected this property in CSOM and REST. But I didn't find it. How can I get a SiteLogoUrl using CSOM or REST?
SP.js
Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.dll
It was moved to the POST request that SharePoint creates while redirecting via appredirect.aspx. So, the only one way to get Site Logo Url is to handle appredirect POST request.
To initiate redirect you should use this code snippet:
Response.Redirect(TokenHelper.GetAppContextTokenRequestUrl(sharePointHostUrl, Server.UrlEncode(targetUrl)));
ContextToken, SiteLogo, Url, Title and so on can be found in the POST FormData.
I need to get the the site colllection url using the javascript.
I have written one simple function as below
function getSiteCollectionUrl()
{
var pageUrl= window.location.href;
var protocol = pageUrl.split(":")[0];
var addr=pageUrl.split("//")[1];
var webUrl = addr.split("/")[0];
var siteColleUrl = protocol + "://" + webUrl
}
let say the site address is "http://mysite/trialsite/default.aspx",
then it will return: "http://mysite"
But I think this isn't proper way to get the site collection url.
PLease suggest if you have any other idea.
Just by looking at SharePoint tag, right below this question, there is exactly the same question: How to get site collection url using javascript?
And the answers are there. And luckily you can get SharePoint site collection URL without invoking SharePoint API, because there is a L_Menu_BaseUrl variable available that contains it.
At http://server/documents it returns:
console.log(L_Menu_BaseUrl)
/documents
You cannot obtain the Site collection Url from just pure javascript without invoking SharePoint API.
If you need to do it in Javascript, you can invoke SharePoint API through web services and get the Site collection Url.
There is already Javascript API available called SPServices. You can use the following function:
SPGetCurrentSite
I am trying to create an html object dynamically with the necessary header information depending on the query string in the link I provide to Facebook. I am hoping that Facebook open graph will call this html link as I provided. However it seems that query string info are not getting passed to my server. Do anyone know how to make this work or what is the more appropriate way to do this. BTW, I am writing my code in Node.js.
To get more info about Facebook open graph api, look here, https://developers.facebook.com/docs/beta/opengraph/actions/.
For example, the link I am trying to pass to Facebook is, "http://xxx-url.com/getFacebookObject?objectId=&description=first dynamic post", so I sent a request with the link as, "https://graph.facebook.com/me/app-name:action-name?object=http://xxx-url.com/getFacebookObject?objectId=&description=first dynamic post". However, when I check the log on the server, I don't see anything in the query string.
Instead of using the query string, you can embed the data in the URL:
http://some-domain.com/getFacebookObject/id/description
Then, depending on what node.js packages you're using, extract the data from the request:
// expess.js style
app.get("/getFacebookObject/:id/:description", function(req, res) {
var id = req.params.id,
desc = req.params.description;
// your code...
});
(See http://expressjs.com/guide.html.)
Sorry, Facebook will strip off all query string information from the URL when they launch your site in the iframe. If it was a page tab app, then you could add it to the app_data query string parameters which in turn gets passed to your iframe's page tab app via the app_data part of the signed_request parameter.
Try this URL:
http://sharepoint.iceweb.com/sites/demo/default.aspx?wsdl
(user: demo#icemail.com, pass: demo)
As far as I remember this used to return the WSDL file for this, but it just returns the normal page instead. How do I get the WSDL for a Sharepoint service? I'm actually looking for the WSDL for the Sharepoint 2007 List service, so if anyone has a link for that, it's appreciated.
Your URL is a little wrong. Try this:
http://sharepoint.iceweb.com/sites/demo/_vti_bin/Lists.asmx?wsdl
You can only get WSDL from a webservice. You are trying to get a WSDL from a web page.
The URL corresponding to the list service is {weburl}/_vti_bin/Lists.asmx
Here is a list af webservices available for SharePoint: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms479390.aspx
