Sharepoint Document Upload Version 1

This handler uploads a file to a SharePoint document library using an HTTP Put method call. Before making the call, the handler builds the url based on the inputted parameters. This url is the location where the file will be uploaded to. The call is then made using the Rest Client gem and the file is uploaded to the specified SharePoint document library. If the document library has versioning enabled, a duplicate file name will be uploaded as a new version and the file will be overwritten if versioning is disabled (versioning is disabled by default in new libraries). Any errors that occurs during this process will be caught and re-raised by the handler. Authentication is done through SSL, so the SharePoint site being accessed needs to be setup to allow SSL connections.

  • Make sure the Sharepoint Web Services database is turned on.

How to get the Homepage URL

To find the homepage url, all you have to do is look at the URL of any page on the Sharepoint site. The url that should be inputted should contain both the base url (the top-most site in the collection) and the sub-site that you are on. Using the example below, the url that would be inputted is "https://sharepoint.company.com/development", where "development" is the sub-site and "sharepoint.compnay.com" is the base site.

  • Parameter Example https://sharepoint.company.com/development/SitePages/Home.aspx

Parameters
