We need to update these details in app.config file Copy the Client Id and Client secret created. For SharePoint online enter the name of the site we just created using Azure Portal.

In App Domain – for on premise SharePoint site enter the App Domain name.

Click on “ Generate” to get client secret.

Click on “ Generate” button to generate a client id.

Update the app.config of console application with client id and secretįollow the below steps to register app using /_layouts/15/appregnew.aspx page of the Sharepoint site.

Provide permissions using /_layouts/15/appinv.aspx.

Go to /_layouts/15/appregnew.aspx and create a client id and client secret.

To register an app we need to follow the below steps Let not create a provider hosted app instead let just register the app and use the secret in console application. Since we don’t need any UI and we need app just for getting client id and client secret which will be used by the console application for getting access to SharePoint site. If you want to deploy our app to a different site then we need to register the app using /_layouts/15/appregnew.aspx. This means it will generate the client id and secret and update the web.config of the provider hosted app web. When you develop an app using Visual studio and when you hit F5, visual studio will take care of app registration. You can create a provider hosted app using Visual studio. Now we are done with creating a console application and we have an azure website. If (listCollection.Count select “ WEBSITE” -> select “ QUICK CREATE” and enter the URL -> and click “ CREATE WEBSITE”. ListCollection listCollection = ĬlientContext.Load(listCollection, lists => lists.Include(list => list.Title).Where(list => list.Title = listName)) Private static void CheckListExists(ClientContext clientContext, string listName) TokenHelper.GetClientContextWithAccessToken(ĬheckListExists(clientContext, listname) String accessToken = TokenHelper.GetAppOnlyAccessToken( String realm = TokenHelper.GetRealmFromTargetUrl(siteUri)

Uri siteUri = new Uri(config.GetValues(key as string)) Var config = (NameValueCollection)ConfigurationManager.GetSection( " Sites") You can write any logic that needs to be executed by the job.

The following sample creates a list if it does not exists and creates items. You can perform the operations supported using CSOM. Write the code that needs to be executed by the job in “ Program.cs” using CSOM.

Step -3: Write the code in console application TokenHelper and SharePointContext classes help the console application in getting access to SharePoint site using client id and client secret. This will add “ TokenHelper.cs” and “ SharePointContext.cs” classes to the solution. Select “ ” and search for “ App for SharePoint Web Toolkit” and click on “ Install”. To create a console application, launch visual studio as a administrator and click onįile ->New ->Project ->Visual C# -> and select Console Application.įrom Visual Studio- navigate to Tools -> Nuget Package Manager -> and select “ Manage Nuget Packages for Solution” as shown in the below. SharePoint app will handle the authentication and assigns permissions required to connect and access the SharePoint site.Ĭonsole application will contain the logic that needs to be executed as per schedule.

Developer site – can be on premise SharePoint site or an Office 365 developer site.

Scheduling – For on premises scheduling of the job can be done using Windows Task and for scheduling in cloud you can use new Webjobs capability of Azure websites. You can schedule the job to run continuously or on a particular schedule or can run on demand.

SharePoint Apps: SharePoint apps are solutions that are easy to install and uninstall and apps are hosted either client side or in cloud but not on SharePoint server.Īzure Webjobs: Azure Webjobs is a new feature of Azure websites that allow you to run programs or tasks at regular intervals. Without writing farm solutions you can still achieve the functionality of timer jobs using SharePoint Apps by writing the code in operations supported by CSOM and schedule the task can be done using windows task for on premise or Azure Webjobs for cloud. If we want to achieve the same functionality of timer job in SharePoint Online or any hosted environment, it is not possible as we cannot deploy farm solutions in SharePoint online and hosted environments.

These timer jobs are farm solutions or full trust solutions which needs to be deployed in SharePoint server and need to run with farm account. In SharePoint you can use timer jobs to perform scheduled tasks.
