Upload files from a folder to Sharepoint and check then in.

hi,

I would like to have a executable program that can upload files to a sharepoint doucment library and automatically check them in.

I am thinking that a c# executeable would do the job?

You can create an C# program to copy the files, to get the target of the Sharepoint folder. Get the network path of the location by 'Exploring the sharepoint" as window explorer and get it map to you network map directory to get the network path. Then it's coping the file from one path to other netwrok path who have access to the folder can only able to copy.

Thank you.

How about the checking in process?

I wonn't need for any check as it's getting published directly

You are not usign the Sharepoint opject, it's Network file copy so, Once you copy the file and open in share point it will come as new file.

Hi,

We currently doing a file network copy using a batch file but the default state of the files are showing as checked out.

santhimurthyd

Check whether the files are in "Read Only" mode. If that's the case then it will come as Checked out. Make as Editable mode.

Easiest way I've added to sharepoint is using..

Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.File.SaveBinaryDirect

But it depends which client framework you want to use.
