Hi all,

Hoping somebody can help as I am quickly running out of ideas. I've setup a Document Library and created the {Version} within each document type, however when I create a document the following error message gets displayed:-

Some information required to complete this label is missing. To add the information now, click OK. To add the information later, click Cancel.

It appears that the label for {Version} or {_UIVersionString} as it is seen in the document is not able to be referenced.

Products are SharePoint 2013 and Word 2013

Kind Regards,

Neil

Hei guys!

I know, that UserProfile Service is not available for SP2013 foundation as in Sharepoint. 
But is it possible to develop a c# console application, where you can use UserProfileManager and still use this with SP 2013 foundation?

Hello everyone,

I have an application (Provider-Hosted) that connects to UserProfileServices.asmx on SharePoint Online 2013.

The main functionality is to retrieve and update the user profile properties and privacy. I know that is possible to update the profile properties using CSOM now, but it isn't possible to retrieve and update the privacy of such.

So, the problem is: My application was running fine and from nowhere it start to throw an exception in every method.

My authentication is working fine, the problem is when i call some methods.

Infos:

WebService: https://mysite-admin.sharepoint.com/_vti_bin/UserProfileService.asmx
User: Global Administrator
It is a Provider-Hosted application.
DLL: Microsoft.SharePoint.Client  //  File Version: 15.0.4641.1000 (tried with 16.0.3104.1200 too)

Code to Authenticate (working fine):

var securePassword = new SecureString();
foreach (char c in password)
{
    securePassword.AppendChar(c);
}

var onlineCredentials = new SharePointOnlineCredentials(login, securePassword);

string authCookieValue = OnlineCredentials.GetAuthenticationCookie(_targetAdminSite);
var cookieVal = authCookieValue.TrimStart("SPOIDCRL=".ToCharArray());

_userProfileService.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;

_userProfileService.CookieContainer = new CookieContainer();
_userProfileService.CookieContainer.Add(new Cookie("FedAuth", cookieVal, String.Empty, _targetAdminSite.Authority));

Methods:

var userProfile = _userProfileService.GetUserProfileByName("i:0#.f|membership|" + _targetUser);

var profileSchema = _userProfileService.GetUserProfileSchema();

Exception (when calling a method):

Server was unable to process request. ---> Attempted to perform an unauthorized operation.

Anyone knows what i should do to solve this?

Thanks for your time and efforts!

I have tried using the Google jQuery script attachd to a content editor. But that does not seem to affect a column when the view is a data grid in edit mode.

I added a notes column and the text is all squished in a column about an inch wide, but the cell is about 6 inches high. I need it to be about 5 inches wide.

This is the script I am trying to use. I saved it as ResizeColumnMigrationNotes.txt in a scripts library in the same site.

Hello everyone.

Often creating complex business application using SharePoint Online, I need to externalize business logic to external service in order to use .net code and third-party assemblies.

In my case I'm developing a Rest Service hosted by an Azure Web Site.

My question is:

Can I obtain an access Token from SharePoint, containing the current user information, pass it to external Rest Service and then reuse it to return to SharePoint using the current user credentials?

Can you give be documentation about it?

Thanks,

Sergio

Please mark my answer if it helped you, I would greatly appreciate it.

We have SharePoint 2013 server. We are implement the some  webpages that will utilize the REST service. currently all the REST calls are runs under current user credential. is their anyway to run the REST call with admin privilege.

We don't have any azure subscription.

Hi  guys,

i have a WebPart  with a A SP People editor , i can pick up the value of one user  but if there are more then  one user how can i do it?

This is my code:

 SPFieldUserValue value = null;
                        if (ProjectTeam.ResolvedEntities.Count > 0)
                        {

I have a PowerShell script that I want to use to copy/move files from one Form Library to another. The script does the copying and brings along most of the metadata, except for the authoring metadata. This is what my current script looks like, what am I doing wrong here? The "Modified" & "Created" dates are copied across just fine, but not the "Modified By" & "Created By" fields. My copied files are all showing "System Account" for "Modified"& "Created By", instead of the user who created and/or modified the items.

Hi there,

I am confused about pagelayouts, and hope I can get some help here.
Would sharepoint pagelayouts only works for Publishing portal? What about pagelayout in non-publishing sites, for example, TeamSites with publishing feature activated.

I have a pagelayout, it shows up in publishing site, but with team site (publishing feature activated), I can not see my pagelayout in options when create new pages in Pages library.

Can anyone help me on this?

Hi All,

I am using Promoted Links with launch behavior = "Dialog"

I manage to change the Dialog size by adding a Content Editor into my Main page with the following code

<style type="text/css">

.ms-dlgContent

{

   width:1500px !important;

   height:1000px !important

}

.ms-dlgBorder

{

   width:1500px !important;

   height:1000px !important

}

</style>

The Dialog width and height did increase, however the Content itself seems to be in a fix width with scroll bars.

How can I also have my Dialog contents width and height to increase? Many Thanks in advance.

I have been working on a SharePoint 2013 List Form using InfoPath.

Normally when I hit "New Item" the form opens on a new page, but something has changed and the form now opens inline with the list items.  Essentially you see the list items, then at the bottom, on the same page, is the new form.  It all appears to work OK, I just want to return to the new form opening on a new page, like all my other forms do.  Also, when editing an existing list item the form opens in a new page, so it's just the new item instance that has changed.

Any suggestions on what changed and steps on how to change it back would be most appreciated as I am baffled.

Thanks,
Andy

Guys,

Has anyone faced a problem of fetching Rollup analytical data. I have configured usage and health configuration in monitoring section of central admin and also ran search crawl in SharePoint 2013. Enabled Microsoft SharePoint Foundation Usage Data Import and Microsoft SharePoint Foundation Usage Data Processing to minutes and daily but still not able to get the rollup data. I can't see any data in AnalyticsItemData TABLE of Search_Service_Application_AnalyticsReportingStoreDB.

Using following code to fetch result 

var context = SPServiceContext.GetContext(site);
                    var searchProxy = context.GetDefaultProxy(typeof(SearchServiceApplicationProxy)) as SearchServiceApplicationProxy;
                    var usageData = searchProxy.GetRollupAnalyticsItemData(1, Guid.Empty, site.ID, Guid.Empty);
                    if (rdHitCountDaily.Checked)
                    {
                        lblResHitCount.Text = "Result : " + usageData.GetHitCountForDay(dpHitCount.Value) + "";
                    }
                    else if (rdHitCountMonthly.Checked)
                    {
                        lblResHitCount.Text = "Result : " + usageData.GetHitCountForMonth(dpHitCount.Value) + "";
                    }
                    else
                    {
                        lblResHitCount.Text = "Result : " + usageData.TotalHits + "";
                    }

usageData is null and not returning any result.

Let me know if anybody has any solution to this issue?

I've been getting a list of folders and files from Sharepoint (on Office 365) by using the following C# code...

...
var folders = ListFolders(libraryName, clientContext, web);
...   

public List<Folder> ListFolders(string libraryName, ClientContext clientContext, Web web)
{
    var list = GetDocumentLibrary(libraryName, clientContext, web);    var folders = list.RootFolder.Folders;    clientContext.Load(folders);    clientContext.ExecuteQuery();    return folders.ToList();       
}   

public List GetDocumentLibrary(string libraryName, ClientContext clientContext, Web web)
{
    var query = clientContext.LoadQuery(web.Lists.Where(p => p.Title == libraryName));   clientContext.ExecuteQuery();
    return query.FirstOrDefault();
}

It was working fine until I rebooted my computer (it installed a Windows Update), I strongly suspect, based on some testing I've done, it is caused by http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2964358 

When the *clientContext.ExecuteQuery()* statement is reached in *GetDocumentLibrary()*, the
following exception is thrown.

*An unhandled exception of type 'System.Xml.XmlException' occurred in System.Xml.dll
Additional information: For security reasons DTD is prohibited in this XML document. To enable DTD processing set the DtdProcessing property on XmlReaderSettings to Parse and pass the settings into XmlReader.Create method.*

I'm wondering how I can work around this, as I'm not consciously using System.XML, it's a background function or process when the ExecuteQuery runs. 

Can I pass some additional XMLReader info to this or clientContext (I'm assuming not), so I'm not sure how to execute this query to prevent the DTD error. I have also tried accessing the list in a different manner, by using this code... (from Microsoft's MSDN pages)

List list = clientContext.Web.Lists.GetByTitle(libraryName);
CamlQuery camlQuery = new CamlQuery();            
camlQuery.ViewXml = "<View/>";
ListItemCollection listItems = list.GetItems(camlQuery);
clientContext.Load(list); clientContext.Load(listItems);
clientContext.ExecuteQuery();

This works on a computer without the KB above, however on my PC it doesn't (I get the same exception as my other code) , obviously uninstalling the KB will make things work in the short term, but its no good in the longer term. Any advice on how to avoid this error would be greatly appreciated.  I can only assume there will be a "preferred" way from Microsoft for accessing lists now this KB is implemented, but I'm clueless as to what it is.

Thanks

Hi!

I'm doing an External Content type in Visual Studio and I'm trying to create a default filter to minimize the amount of data that I get from the webservice.

I want to select all rows from the webservice between two dates.

Can I somehow create that filter with variables? Like filter from [today] to [today+3]??

In the .ect file I can find the filter descriptors but the Comparator is "Equals" I want them to be "bigger than" and "smaller than" ... but I cand find any documentation of it?

<FilterDescriptor Name="StartDateTimeFilter" DefaultDisplayName="StartDateTimeFilter" Type="Comparison" FilterField="StartDateTime">
                  <Properties>
                    <Property Name="Comparator" Type="System.String">Equals</Property>
                  </Properties>
                </FilterDescriptor>
                <FilterDescriptor Name="StopDateTimeFilter" DefaultDisplayName="StopDateTimeFilter" Type="Comparison" FilterField="StopDateTime">
                  <Properties>
                    <Property Name="Comparator" Type="System.String">Equals</Property>
                  </Properties>
                </FilterDescriptor>

Hello,

Recently I have developed a PowerBI Report using Excel Workbook with external data source. It refreshes successfully for some days and then starts throwing error on every scheduled refresh as"We cannot locate a server to load the workbook Data Model." 

The workaround solution is to restart the application server which has SQL Server Power Pivot Services Installed which will again work for some more days and again start throwing error.

So, I am looking for permanent fix for it.

Following are additional details about our SP Farm:

No. of front end servers: 2, Application servers:2, DB servers 2 with windows fail over cluster.

PowerPivot Server is installed and configured from App 2 server.

Error Log from event viewer:
