I writing a tool to automatically update a datasheet on a sharepoint 2007 site. The tool runs on JVM, and seems like 2007 has no REST service support, so can anyone point me to some good resource of using webservice to update datasheet object on sharepoint?
Thanks,
The DataSheet is just a UI view in front of a SharePoint list, therefore you should be looking to update the List, not the DataSheet UI.
This will give you a start, its written for C# but can be ported to Java.

This programming task shows how to use
the UpdateListItems method of the
Lists Web service to update items in a
list through a Microsoft Windows
application.

I am sitting with a project where I need to do a 2-way synchronize between Sitecore 8.2 and Microsoft Dynamics 365. From what I have been able to find, I see that version 1.4.1 can connect the following out of the box.
-Campaigns
-Contacts
-Marketing lists
I need to synchronize far more than that, and I am curious about whether or not Sitecore Connect is customizable to synchronize with everything there is in Dynamics 365. I have read all the documentation I could find, without finding an answer.
There is also the option of upgrading to sitecore 9, and using Dynamics CRM Connect 2.x. But again, I can't find much documentation about the possibilities of 2.x
Is Sitecore Connect 1.4.x/2.x customizable to a point where you can synchronize everything?
Yes, you can customize what data is being sent back and forth. Some example mappings are shown in the documentation for 2.0.1: http://integrationsdn.sitecore.net/DynamicsCrmConnect/v2.0.1/adding-custom-data/dynamics-to-sitecore/custom-contact-facets/index.html
For v1.4.1, you can check the documentation for additional CRM entities: http://integrationsdn.sitecore.net/DynamicsCrmConnect/v1.4.1/cookbooks/supporting-additional-crm-entities/index.html
Ultimately, this is all based on the Data Exchange Framework which is a fully customizable connection framework.
I want to use MS Edge as an html editor. Is that possible?
Can I use c++ to access undo stack?
If so, please point me to any kind of documentation.
Thanks
I don't have any sources for this, but I'm pretty certain that Microsoft didn't carry this functionality over into Edge - especially considering that you can't embed Edge in a C++ or .NET desktop application the same way you can with IE.
I don't see any reason you couldn't just keep using MSHTML, though.
When referring to the MS Web Browser Control documentation there is, at the top of the page:
We're no longer updating this content regularly. Check the Microsoft Product Lifecycle for information about how this product, service, technology, or API is supported.
And next to it, a button: "Recommended Version."
Click the button, and it's the MS Edge dev portal. From there, we see, amongst others. a link to Mozilla Developer Network Web Docs, and another to MS's own Progressive Web Apps on Windows. Not so MSHTML edity anymore, but if you want it implemented, then perhaps uservoice?
I've been doing some research on how to implement a workflow in SharePoint Online and I found two interesting examples:
First
Second
They were useful, but there is a big problem with these. They are apps, so the workflow cannot be used outside the app (ex. lists, libraries) is there any way to make this (using Visual Studio, Power shell, SP Designer, etc.)? I am new in SharePoint, can anybody help me?
You kan add
true
to the WorkflowManifest in order to publish the workflow om the hostweb. But not that the tasks og history for the workfow is still tracked on the appweb.
You can see example here...
http://www.vrdmn.com/2014/09/integrated-workflow-apps-deploy.html
If you need the tasks and history on the hostweb you can create a sandbox solution with the workflow and publish the wsp-apckage on the site.
If you are not a programmer you're probably better of with SharePoint Designer 2013. You can download that for free. Just make a quick search for SharePoint Designer 2013 Workflow. There are plenty of examples for this.
I use Dynamics CRM Online (2013) to manage daily incident tickets, daily requests and change requests. I'd like to use their API and pull this information into a custom application to display them on a dashboard.
Basically what I want to do is to be able to grab the number of open tickets using my application. Then it'll publish this information to elsewhere. It's a Java application running on a Windows server.
Can you please point me in the correct direction?
MSDN lists a walkthrough (click here to see it) (it's related to CRM Online 2011, but since most of the info is still accurate I'd say it's worth a try) aimed exactly at connecting to CRM Online fom Java.
The prerequisites listed are
Java SE SDK 1.6 update 23 or later
Eclipse 3.7.x and above or NetBeans 6.9x or later
Apache Axis 2 ver. 1.6.1
Apache HTTP Components Client 4.1.3
Microsoft Dynamics CRM Online
You're going to have to generate the classes (in .NET you use crmsvcutil.exe, it's roughly equivalent) and then you should be all set.
I want to write a .NET application that will interface in realtime with Dynamics NAV 2009 and 2013. The application will have to read and update entities such as customers and stock items.
Using the provided webservices seem to be the best candidate as a point for integration, and I've tried some basic tests reading, updating and creating items using webservices based on Pages and a .net client.
Unfortunately, I am very new to Dynamics, and I have some questions that probably reflect that lack of experience.
First - webservices can expose either Page or Codeunits. Is Page the correct option to use for interfacing to say - create a customer?
Secondly - My understanding is that Dynamics NAV is rarely deployed without customisation. Would a typical customisation in NAV e.g an addition of a field involve changing a standard Page, and will this change then be reflected in the webservice definition?
You are right - given your requirements, webservices are probably the best option for interfacing with NAV.
Regarding your first question: page web services know how to handle concurrency, and, thanks to the way Visual Studio encapsulates them, expose rich types that you can interact with from your .NET code. All the basic CRUD operations can be carried out using the exposed methods. For a more detailed comparison between codeunit web services and page web services, please refer to http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd355398.aspx.
I think most developers choose not to publish the normal pages (the ones aimed at the NAV Windows Client; previously known as the Role Tailored Client), but instead, create separate, tweaked pages for publishing as a web service. But, if you prefer, I guess you could add your custom field to the standard page and publish that as a web service.
Hope this helps! Good luck! :)
