I tried to Create a new list item using client object model. I have created an asp.net application to do the task. It works if I pass the URL of SharePoint server which is installed in my machine.
But if I give my SharePoint online URL it is not working as below code shows. I get "The remote server returned an error: (403) Forbidden. " error.
Any idea?
ClientContext context = new ClientContext("https://xxx.sharepoint.com/SitePages/");
List announcementsList = context.Web.Lists.GetByTitle("Announcements");
ListItemCreationInformation itemCreateInfo = new ListItemCreationInformation();
Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.ListItem newItem = announcementsList.AddItem(itemCreateInfo);
newItem["Title"] = result.City;
newItem["Body"] = result.State;
newItem.Update();
context.ExecuteQuery();
if you are trying to get a Context object from SharePoint Online you have to put in the right Credentials
, as for SharePoint Online you should use the SharePointOnlineCredentials Class
A possible Authentication Method can be look like this:
private void AutheticateO365(string url, string password, string userName)
{
Context = new ClientContext(url);
var passWord = new SecureString();
foreach (char c in password.ToCharArray()) passWord.AppendChar(c);
Context.Credentials = new SharePointOnlineCredentials(userName, passWord);
var web = Context.Web;
Context.Load(web);
Context.ExecuteQuery();
}
I would imagine you just have to supply your login credentials and it should work:
clientContext.Credentials = new NetworkCredential("Username", "Password", "Domain");
You'll need to including System.Net:
using System.Net;
