SharePoint Control
Properties Methods Events Config Settings Errors
The SharePoint control makes it easy to upload, download, and manage files and folder within SharePoint sites and document libraries.
Syntax
SharePoint
Remarks
The SharePoint control provides a simple interface to working with a SharePoint site document libraries. Capabilities include uploading and downloading files, strong encryption support, creating folders, moving and copying resources, listing SharePoint sites, and more.
To begin, first create an account and register your application with the Microsoft Graph API. Consult the Microsoft Graph API documentation for instructions on this process.
Authentication
This control requires authentication via OAuth 2.0. First, perform OAuth authentication using the OAuth property to set the appropriate fields for the chosen OAuthClientProfile and OAuthGrantType.
The control has the following default OAuthServerAuthURL and OAuthServerTokenURL properties. Additionally, below is a common scope for the control:
Authorization Server URL | "https://login.microsoftonline.com/common/oauth2/v2.0/authorize" |
Token Server URL | "https://login.microsoftonline.com/common/oauth2/v2.0/token" |
Scopes | "offline_access files.readwrite files.readwrite.all sites.readwrite.all" |
Additionally, depending on how the application is registered (Ex. Multi-tenant) and what OAuthGrantType is selected (Ex. Client Credentials and Password), it may be required to use the tenant ID rather than "common" in the OAuthServerAuthURL and OAuthServerTokenURL properties. In the case of Client Credentials and Password grant types, it is also required to use the "default" scopes of the app registration. See below for examples of the modified URLs and scopes:
Authorization Server URL | "https://login.microsoftonline.com/{TENANT_ID}/oauth2/v2.0/authorize" |
Token Server URL | "https://login.microsoftonline.com/{TENANT_ID}/oauth2/v2.0/token" |
Scopes | "https://graph.microsoft.com/.default" |
Below is a brief description of the different OAuthClientProfile and OAuthGrantType values that are supported by this control. For a more in-depth description of what needs to be set, refer to the service documentation.
Application Profile
This profile encompasses the most basic grant types that OAuth supports. When this profile is set, all the requests and response handling is done by the control. Depending on the grant type, this may involve launching a browser so a user can login to authenticate with a authorization server. It may also involve starting an embedded web server to receive a response from a redirect.
To start the authentication and authorization process, the Authorize method should be called. If the authorization and authentication was successful, then the OAuthAccessToken property will be populated. Additionally, if a refresh token was provided the OAuthRefreshToken property will be populated as well. These values of the fields are for informational purposes. The control will also cache these tokens along with when the OAuthAccessToken will be expired. When a method that makes requests to the service provider is called or the Authorize method is called the control will automatically check to see if the access token is expired. If it is, it will then automatically try to get a new OAuthAccessToken. If the Authorize method was not used and user interaction would be required, the control will throw an error which can be caught. When user interaction is needed depends on what grant type is set in the OAuthGrantType property. To force the component to only check the access token when the Authorize method is called, the OAuthAutomaticRefresh configuration setting can be set to false.
A brief description of the supported values for the OAuthGrantType property are below. For more information, see the service documentation.
Authorization Code
When using the Authorization Code grant type, the control will use an authorization code to get an access token. For this OAuthGrantType the control expects a OAuthClientId, OAuthClientSecret, OAuthServerAuthURL, and OAuthServerTokenURL to be set. When the Authorize method is called, the component will start the embedded web server and launch the browser so the user can authorize the application. Once the user authorizes, the service provider will redirect them to the embedded web server and the control will parse the authorization code, setting the OAuthAuthorizationCode property, from the redirect. Immediately, the control will make a request to the token server to exchange the authorization code for an access token. The token server will return an access token and possibly a refresh token. If the OAuthRefreshToken property is set, or a refresh token is cached, then the control will not launch the browser and use the refresh token in its request to the token server instead of an authorization code.
Example:
Sharepoint sharepoint = new Sharepoint();
sharepoint.OAuth.ClientProfile = CloudOAuthClientProfiles.cocpApplication;
sharepoint.OAuth.GrantType = OAuthSettingsGrantTypes.cogtAuthorizationCode;
sharepoint.OAuth.ClientId = CLIENT_ID;
sharepoint.OAuth.ClientSecret = CLIENT_SECRET;
sharepoint.OAuth.AuthorizationScope = "offline_access files.readwrite files.readwrite.all";
sharepoint.Authorize();
Client Credentials
When using the Client Credentials grant type, the control will act as a service instead of authorizing and authenticating as a user. This allows for the control to avoid user interaction. This is typically used when running in an application that can not have user access. This grant type requires additional set up to be done in the service providers portal before it can be used. For this OAuthGrantType the control expects a OAuthClientId, OAuthClientSecret, and OAuthServerTokenURL to be set. When the Authorize method is called, the component will make a request to the token server for an access token. The token server will return an access token if the application has the authorization to do so. When this access token is expired, the component will automatically (see above for detailed description) make a new request to get a fresh one.
Implicit
Note: This grant type is considered insecure and should only be used when necessary.
When using the Implicit grant type, the control will request the authorization server to get an access token. For this OAuthGrantType the control expects a OAuthClientId, OAuthClientSecret, and OAuthServerAuthURL to be set. When the Authorize method is called, the component will start the embedded web server and launch the browser so the user can authorize the application. Once the user authorizes, the service provider will redirect them to the embedded web server and the control will parse the access token from the redirect.
A disadvantage of the grant type is that can not use a refresh token to silently get a new access token. Most service providers offer a way to silently get a new access token. See the service documentation for specifics. This means the control will not be able to automatically get a fresh token once it expires.
Password
Note: This grant type is considered insecure and should only be used when necessary.
When using the Resource Owner Password Credentials grant type, the control will authenticate as the resource owner. This allows for the control to avoid user interaction. This grant type often has specific limitations put on it by the service provider. See the service documentation for more details.
For this OAuthGrantType the control requires OAuthPasswordGrantUsername, OAuthClientSecret, and OAuthServerTokenURL to be set. The OAuthClientSecret should be set to the password of the account instead of a typical secret. In some cases, the OAuthClientId also needs to be set. When the Authorize method is called, the component will make a request to the token server for an access token using the username and password. The token server will return an access token if the authentication was successful. When this access token is expired, the component will automatically (see above for detailed description) make a new request to get a fresh one.
Web Profile
This profile is similar to setting the control to the Application profile and Authorization Code grant type except the control will not launch the browser. It is typically used in situations where there is a back-end that is supporting some front end. This profile expects that OAuthClientId, OAuthClientSecret, OAuthServerAuthURL, OAuthServerTokenURL, and the OAuthReturnURL properties to be set. Before calling the Authorize method, the OAuthWebAuthURL property should be queried to get a URL. This URL should be used to redirect the user to the authorization page for the service provider. The redirect_uri parameter of this URL is mapped to the OAuthReturnURL property. The OAuthReturnURL property should be set to some web server that will parse the authorization code out of the query parameter from the redirect. Once the authorization code is parsed, it should be passed back to the server where it is then set to the OAuthAuthorizationCode property. Once that is set, the Authorize method can be called to exchange the authorization code for an access token and refresh token if provided. The control will then cache these values like normal and use them to make requests. If the OAuthRefreshToken field is set, or a refresh token is cached, then the Authorize method can immediately be called to make a request to the token server to get a new access token.
External OAuth Support
For complex profiles or grant types, or for more control of the flow, it is possible to perform OAuth authentication using the OAuth control or a separate process. Once complete you should have an authorization string which looks like:Bearer ACCESS_TOKEN_VALUE
Assign this value to the Authorization property before attempting any operations. Setting the Authorization property will cause the control to ignore the values set in the OAuth property.
For Example:
Oauth oauth = new Oauth();
oauth.ClientId = "CLIENT_ID";
oauth.ClientSecret = "CLIENT_SECRET;
oauth.ServerAuthURL = "https://login.microsoftonline.com/common/oauth2/v2.0/authorize";
oauth.ServerTokenURL = "https://login.microsoftonline.com/common/oauth2/v2.0/token";
oauth.AuthorizationScope = "offline_access files.readwrite files.readwrite.all sites.readwrite.all";
oauth.GrantType = OauthGrantTypes.ogtAuthorizationCode;
sharepoint.Authorization = oauth.GetAuthorization();
Consult the documentation for the service for more information about supported scope values and more details on OAuth authentication.
Note: There are a couple of extra factors to consider when doing OAuth for SharePoint; please refer to the Authorization property documentation for more information.
Listing Resources
ListResources lists resources within the folder resource currently selected by RemoteId or RemotePath. Calling this method will fire the ResourceList event once for each resource, and will also populate the Resources properties.
If there are still more resources available to list when this method returns, the ResourceMarker property will be populated. Continue to call this method until ResourceMarker is empty to accumulate all pages of results in the Resources properties.
Alternatively, the AccumulatePages configuration setting can be disabled to clear the Resources properties every time a page of results is returned.
// ResourceList event handler.
sharepoint.OnResourceList += (s, e) => {
Console.WriteLine(e.Name);
};
// (Assume that the RemoteId property isn't set; it takes precedence if it is.)
sharepoint.RemotePath = "/work_files/serious_business/cats";
do {
sharepoint.ListResources();
for (int i = 0; i < sharepoint.Resources.Count; i++) {
// Process resources here.
}
} while (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(sharepoint.ResourceMarker));
Downloading Files
The DownloadFile method downloads the file resource currently selected by RemoteId or RemotePath.
If LocalFile is set, the file will be saved to the specified location; otherwise, the file data will be held by ResourceData.
To download and decrypt an encrypted file, set EncryptionAlgorithm and EncryptionPassword before calling this method.
Download Notes
In the simplest use-case, downloading a file looks like this:
sharepoint.LocalFile = "../MyFile.zip";
sharepoint.RemoteId = sharepoint.Resources[0].Id;
sharepoint.DownloadFile();
Resuming Downloads
The control also supports resuming failed downloads by using the StartByte property. If a download is interrupted, set StartByte to the appropriate offset before calling this method to resume the download.
string downloadFile = "../MyFile.zip";
sharepoint.LocalFile = downloadFile;
sharepoint.RemoteId = sharepoint.Resources[0].Id;
sharepoint.DownloadFile();
//The transfer is interrupted and DownloadFile() above fails. Later, resume the download:
//Get the size of the partially downloaded file
sharepoint.StartByte = new FileInfo(downloadFile).Length;
sharepoint.DownloadFile();
Resuming Encrypted File Downloads
Resuming encrypted file downloads is only supported when LocalFile was set in the initial download attempt.
If LocalFile is set when beginning an encrypted download, the control creates a temporary file in TempPath to hold the encrypted data until the download is complete. If the download is interrupted, DownloadTempFile will be populated with the path of the temporary file that holds the partial data.
To resume, DownloadTempFile must be populated, along with StartByte, to allow the remainder of the encrypted data to be downloaded. Once the encrypted data is downloaded it will be decrypted and written to LocalFile.
sharepoint.LocalFile = "../MyFile.zip";
sharepoint.EncryptionPassword = "password";
sharepoint.RemoteId = sharepoint.Resources[0].Id;
sharepoint.DownloadFile();
//The transfer is interrupted and DownloadFile() above fails. Later, resume the download:
//Get the size of the partially download temp file
sharepoint.StartByte = new FileInfo(sharepoint.Config("DownloadTempFile")).Length;
sharepoint.DownloadFile();
Uploading Files
The UploadFile method uploads new file resources to the folder resource currently selected by RemoteId or RemotePath.
If LocalFile is set the file will be uploaded from the specified path. If LocalFile is not set the data in ResourceData will be used.
To encrypt the file before uploading it, set EncryptionAlgorithm and EncryptionPassword.
Upload Notes
SharePoint offers two ways to upload a file. For smaller files a simple upload option is provided to upload data in one request. This is the default option. For larger files, uploads can be fragmented into multiple pieces, allowing resuming of uploads that may be interrupted.
Simple
By default the control uses the simple upload mechanism.
sharepoint.LocalFile = "../MyFile.zip";
sharepoint.UploadFile("MyFile.zip");
Resumable
To enable resumable uploads set UseResumableUpload to . This is recommended for large files. The control will automatically fragment the specified file into smaller pieces and upload each individually. FragmentSize may be set to specify the size of the fragment if desired. The default fragment size is 10 MB.
When UseResumableUpload is set to and UploadFile is called, a resumable upload session is started by the control. ResumeURL is populated with a URL identifying the session (this value may be needed for additional operations if the upload does not complete normally).
During a resumable upload, the FragmentComplete event fires after each fragment is uploaded to indicate overall progress. The control also updates StartByte as necessary to indicate the current offset in the file.
If the upload is interrupted for any reason, resuming it is easy. First, verify that ResumeURL and StartByte are populated (if the same instance of the control is used, they should already be populated, and no special action should be needed). Then call UploadFile again to resume the upload at the specified StartByte offset.
Note that if the upload is not resumed after some time the upload session will expire.
PollUploadStatus may be used to check the status of a resumable upload, including when it will expire (which is stored in the UploadExpDate configuration setting).
An interrupted upload can be aborted explicitly using the AbortUpload method.
sharepoint.LocalFile = "../MyFile.zip";
sharepoint.UploadFile("MyFile.zip");
//The transfer is interrupted and UploadFile() above fails. Later, resume the download.
//Using the same instance StartByte and ResumeURL are already populated from the previous
//upload attempt.
sharepoint.UploadFile("MyFile.zip");
Additional Functionality
The SharePoint control offers advanced functionality beyond simple uploads and downloads. For instance:
- Encrypt and decrypt files using the EncryptionAlgorithm and EncryptionPassword properties.
- Basic file and folder manipulation and organization using methods such as CopyResource, CreateFolder, DeleteResource, MoveResource, and UpdateResource.
- Creation of resource sharing links using CreateLink.
- Change tracking with ListChanges.
- Advanced resource listing using the Search method.
- Listing, getting, and selecting a document libraries using the ListDocumentLibraries and GetDocumentLibraryInfo methods and the DocumentLibrary property.
- Listing the current SharePoint sites available to the authenticated entity with the ListSites method.
- And more!

Authorization Property (SharePoint Control)
OAuth 2.0 Authorization Token.
Syntax
sharepointcontrol.Authorization[=string]
Default Value
""
Remarks
This control supports authentication via OAuth 2.0. First, perform OAuth authentication using the OAuth property, using the OAuth control or a separate process. If using the OAuth property, then the Authorization property will not be used. Once complete you should have an authorization string which looks like:
Bearer ACCESS_TOKENAssign this value to the Authorization property before attempting any operations.
Authorization Notes
Microsoft's OAuth system is heavily integrated into Azure Active Directory, which has undergone a number of restructurings in recent years. The task of registering an application for use with Microsoft Graph (or any other Microsoft service that supports OAuth authentication) is a common point of confusion, especially given the continued availability of old documentation about Azure AD.At this time, the most straightforward instructions available for registering an application for use with Microsoft Graph can be found on Register your app page of the Microsoft Graph API documentation. One of the steps on that page is selecting the application's supported account types. In most cases, the "Accounts in any organizational directory and personal Microsoft accounts" option is the most appropriate.
Once the application is registered, refer to the instructions on the Get access on behalf of a user page of the Microsoft Graph API documentation for information about what endpoints to use with the OAuth control for authentication. Pay special attention to the description of the possible value for the {tenent} segment of the OAuth endpoints.
Refer to the Microsoft Graph API's permissions documentation for more information about the OAuth scopes that Microsoft Graph supports.

Parameters Provided | Effect |
Only NewName | Copies the resource in place with the new name. |
Only ParentId | Copies the resource to the given parent with the same name. |
NewName and ParentId | Copies the resource to the given parent with the new name. |
None | Exception; at least one parameter must be provided. |
ParentId, if provided, must either be the Id of a folder resource that already exists in the document library currently selected by DocumentLibrary, or root (an alias for the root of the document library).
Monitoring Copy Operations
All copy operations are asynchronous. After calling CopyResource, the CopyStatusURL configuration setting will be populated with a copy operation monitor URL.
The PollCopyStatus method can be used to retrieve the latest status of the copy operation specified by the CopyStatusURL configuration setting. Calling PollCopyStatus will populate the CopyPercentDone, CopyStatus, and (if applicable) CopiedResourceId properties.
CreateFolder Method (SharePoint Control)
Creates a new folder resource.
Syntax
sharepointcontrol.CreateFolder FolderName
Remarks
This method creates a new folder resource, with the given FolderName, within the folder resource currently selected by RemoteId or RemotePath. The Id of the newly-created folder resource is returned.
If the ClientCreatedTime and/or ClientModifiedTime configuration settings are non-empty when this method is called, the corresponding timestamps will be submitted with the folder creation request.
Name Conflict Resolution
If the RenameIfExists configuration setting is enabled when this method is called, and the desired FolderName is already in use, the server will modify the name of the new folder resource to be unique. Refer to the RenameIfExists configuration setting for more information.
CreateLink Method (SharePoint Control)
Creates a resource sharing link.
Syntax
sharepointcontrol.CreateLink ReadOnly
Remarks
This method creates and returns a sharing link for the resource currently selected by RemoteId or RemotePath. The ReadOnly parameter controls whether the link provides view-only or editing access to the resource in question.
The CreateLinkScope configuration setting can also be used to control the access scope used to create the link.
// Create a read-only shared link for the given file.
sharepoint.RemotePath = "/work_stuff/serious_business/best_cat_pictures.zip";
string sharingUrl = sharepoint.CreateLink(true);
DeleteResource Method (SharePoint Control)
Deletes the currently selected resource.
Syntax
sharepointcontrol.DeleteResource
Remarks
This method deletes the resource currently selected by RemoteId or RemotePath. When deleting a folder resource, all of its contents are also deleted.
Important: Resources are deleted permanently!
DownloadFile Method (SharePoint Control)
Downloads the currently selected file resource.
Syntax
sharepointcontrol.DownloadFile
Remarks
This method downloads the file resource currently selected by RemoteId or RemotePath.
If LocalFile is set, the file will be saved to the specified location; otherwise, the file data will be held by ResourceData.
To download and decrypt an encrypted file, set EncryptionAlgorithm and EncryptionPassword before calling this method.
Download Notes
In the simplest use-case, downloading a file looks like this:
sharepoint.LocalFile = "../MyFile.zip";
sharepoint.RemoteId = sharepoint.Resources[0].Id;
sharepoint.DownloadFile();
Resuming Downloads
The control also supports resuming failed downloads by using the StartByte property. If a download is interrupted, set StartByte to the appropriate offset before calling this method to resume the download.
string downloadFile = "../MyFile.zip";
sharepoint.LocalFile = downloadFile;
sharepoint.RemoteId = sharepoint.Resources[0].Id;
sharepoint.DownloadFile();
//The transfer is interrupted and DownloadFile() above fails. Later, resume the download:
//Get the size of the partially downloaded file
sharepoint.StartByte = new FileInfo(downloadFile).Length;
sharepoint.DownloadFile();
Resuming Encrypted File Downloads
Resuming encrypted file downloads is only supported when LocalFile was set in the initial download attempt.
If LocalFile is set when beginning an encrypted download, the control creates a temporary file in TempPath to hold the encrypted data until the download is complete. If the download is interrupted, DownloadTempFile will be populated with the path of the temporary file that holds the partial data.
To resume, DownloadTempFile must be populated, along with StartByte, to allow the remainder of the encrypted data to be downloaded. Once the encrypted data is downloaded it will be decrypted and written to LocalFile.
sharepoint.LocalFile = "../MyFile.zip";
sharepoint.EncryptionPassword = "password";
sharepoint.RemoteId = sharepoint.Resources[0].Id;
sharepoint.DownloadFile();
//The transfer is interrupted and DownloadFile() above fails. Later, resume the download:
//Get the size of the partially download temp file
sharepoint.StartByte = new FileInfo(sharepoint.Config("DownloadTempFile")).Length;
sharepoint.DownloadFile();
GetCurrentChangeMarker Method (SharePoint Control)
Gets the most current change marker.
Syntax
sharepointcontrol.GetCurrentChangeMarker
Remarks
This method populates NextChangeMarker with the most current change marker available.
Refer to ListChanges for more information.
GetDocumentLibraryInfo Method (SharePoint Control)
Gets information about the currently selected document library.
Syntax
sharepointcontrol.GetDocumentLibraryInfo
Remarks
This method retrieves information about the document library currently selected by DocumentLibrary.
Calling this method will fire the DocumentLibraryList event, and will populate the DocumentLibraries properties with a single item (clearing any previously-held items in the process).
GetResourceInfo Method (SharePoint Control)
Gets information about the currently selected resource.
Syntax
sharepointcontrol.GetResourceInfo
Remarks
This method retrieves information about the resource currently selected by RemoteId or RemotePath.
Calling this method will fire the ResourceList event, and will populate the Resources properties with a single item (clearing any previously-held items in the process).
Interrupt Method (SharePoint Control)
This method interrupts the current method.
Syntax
sharepointcontrol.Interrupt
Remarks
If there is no method in progress, Interrupt simply returns, doing nothing.
ListChanges Method (SharePoint Control)
Lists changes to resources in the currently selected document library.
Syntax
sharepointcontrol.ListChanges
Remarks
This method lists changes to resources in the document library currently selected by DocumentLibrary.
Starting from a Baseline State
For most use-cases, it is necessary to obtain a baseline of the full document library hierarchy in order to have a context onto which later changes can be applied.
To obtain a full document library hierarchy baseline, ensure that both ChangeMarker and NextChangeMarker are empty, and then call ListChanges. Then follow the process described in the "General Usage" section (below) until ChangeMarker is empty, keeping in mind that the results being returned are not necessarily* changes, but rather the current state of all resources in the document library.
*If any resources in the document library are changed before all result pages of the baseline have been returned, SharePoint may append those change items to the end of the baseline's results. Refer to the "Usage Considerations" section (below) for more information.
Starting from the Latest State
For use-cases that don't require a baseline (e.g., perhaps an application just displays a "ticker" with change information), call GetCurrentChangeMarker. This will populate NextChangeMarker immediately.
General Usage
When this method is called, it will use the change marker stored in either ChangeMarker or NextChangeMarker (only one can be populated at a time) to request the next page of changes. This method causes the ResourceList event to fire once for each change, and will also populate the Resources properties.
If there are still more changes available to list when this method returns, the ChangeMarker property will be populated. Continue to call this method until ChangeMarker is empty to accumulate all pages of results in the Resources properties. (Once there aren't any more changes available to list, the NextChangeMarker property will be populated instead.) Alternatively, the AccumulatePages configuration setting can be disabled to clear the Resources properties every time a page of results is returned.
When NextChangeMarker is populated, it is always populated with a value that (at the time of population) points to the most current state. (Since "the most current state" implies that there are no further changes to list, calling ListChanges immediately after NextChangeMarker is populated will not return any further changes.)
Example of Getting a Baseline and then Listing Changes
// Get a full document library hierarchy baseline first.
Sharepoint sharepoint = new Sharepoint();
sharepoint.ListChanges();
do {
// Continue to call ListChanges() until ChangeMarker is the empty string (indicating there
// are no more changes to list).
sharepoint.ListChanges();
} while (sharepoint.ChangeMarker.Length > 0);
for (int i = 0; i < sharepoint.Resources.Count; i++) {
// Apply the baseline document library state.
}
// Now NextChangeMarker will be populated. If we were to call ListChanges() again right now,
// nothing would be listed and NextChangeMarker would still be populated.
// Wait 2 minutes and then try to list changes again. Assume something changes while we wait.
Thread.Sleep(120000);
sharepoint.ListChanges();
do {
sharepoint.ListChanges();
} while (sharepoint.ChangeMarker.Length > 0);
for (int i = 0; i < sharepoint.Resources.Count; i++) {
// Apply the changes.
}
Usage Considerations
Keep the following things in mind when working with SharePoint changes:- When listing changes, certain resource properties are not included. For example, resource paths are not returned; always use resource Ids when tracking changes.
- It is possible for a resource, uniquely identified by its Id, to appear more than once in a change set. (This can happen if changes are being listed, and then a change occurs before all result pages in the change set are returned; SharePoint will then typically append the new change to the end of the current change set.) Since a SharePoint change always reflects the latest state of a resource, just use the latest one.
- SharePoint will report a change when a resource is created, renamed, modified, or deleted; but it only explicitly specifies deletions. However, it is easy to differentiate between the other change events by keeping track of resource Ids, names, and last modified times; and then comparing old and new values when changes arrive.
ListDocumentLibraries Method (SharePoint Control)
Lists the document libraries in the current site.
Syntax
sharepointcontrol.ListDocumentLibraries
Remarks
This method lists the document libraries contained in the current site that is set by the SiteId property.
Calling this method will fire the DocumentLibraryList event once for each document library, and will also populate the DocumentLibraries properties.
If there are still more document libraries available to list when this method returns, the DocumentLibraryMarker property will be populated. Continue to call this method until DocumentLibraryMarker is empty to accumulate all pages of results in the DocumentLibraries properties. Alternatively, the AccumulatePages configuration setting can be disabled to clear the DocumentLibraries properties every time a page of results is returned.
ListResources Method (SharePoint Control)
Lists resources in the currently selected folder.
Syntax
sharepointcontrol.ListResources
Remarks
This method lists resources in the folder resource currently selected by RemoteId or RemotePath.
Calling this method will fire the ResourceList event once for each resource, and will also populate the Resources properties.
If there are still more resources available to list when this method returns, the ResourceMarker property will be populated. Continue to call this method until ResourceMarker is empty to accumulate all pages of results in the Resources properties. Alternatively, the AccumulatePages configuration setting can be disabled to clear the Resources properties every time a page of results is returned.
For more complex queries, use the Search method.
// ResourceList event handler.
sharepoint.OnResourceList += (s, e) => {
Console.WriteLine(e.Name);
};
// (Assume that the RemoteId property isn't set; it takes precedence if it is.)
sharepoint.RemotePath = "/work_files/serious_business/cats";
do {
sharepoint.ListResources();
for (int i = 0; i < sharepoint.Resources.Count; i++) {
// Process resources here.
}
} while (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(sharepoint.ResourceMarker));
ListSites Method (SharePoint Control)
List the sites currently accessible by the authenticated entity.
Syntax
sharepointcontrol.ListSites
Remarks
This method lists the sites of the currently authenticated entity. Calling this method will fire the SiteList event once for each site, and will also clear and populate the Sites properties.
The exact endpoint that is requested (and the parameters for the request) can be modified by the ListSitesParams configuration setting. For example, this setting can be changed to make a search or list the subsites of a specified site. See the ListSitesParams entry for more information.
Basic List
sharepoint.ListSites();
string siteId = sharepoint.Sites[0].Id;
Subsite List
sharepoint.Config($"ListSitesParams=/{parantSiteId}/sites");
sharepoint.ListSites();
string childSiteId = sharepoint.Sites[0].Id;
MoveResource Method (SharePoint Control)
Moves the currently selected resource.
Syntax
sharepointcontrol.MoveResource ParentId
Remarks
This method moves the resource currently selected by RemoteId or RemotePath to the folder specified by ParentId.
ParentId must either be the Id of a folder resource that already exists in the document library currently selected by DocumentLibrary, or root (an alias for the root of the document library).
PollCopyStatus Method (SharePoint Control)
Gets the status of a copy operation.
Syntax
sharepointcontrol.PollCopyStatus
Remarks
This method retrieves the latest status information for the copy operation specified by the CopyStatusURL configuration setting.
After calling this method, the CopyPercentDone, CopyStatus, and (if applicable) CopiedResourceId properties will be populated.
Refer to CopyResource, as well as the properties mentioned above, for more information.
PollUploadStatus Method (SharePoint Control)
Gets the status of the current resumable upload session.
Syntax
sharepointcontrol.PollUploadStatus
Remarks
This method retrieves the status of the resumable upload session specified by ResumeURL.
After calling this method, the StartByte property and UploadExpDate configuration setting will be populated.
Reset Method (SharePoint Control)
Resets the control to its initial state.
Syntax
sharepointcontrol.Reset
Remarks
This method resets the control to its initial state.
Search Method (SharePoint Control)
Searches for resources that match the specified query.
Syntax
sharepointcontrol.Search Query
Remarks
This method searches for resources that match the given Query within the folder resource currently selected by RemoteId or RemotePath. The value provided for Query will automatically be URL-encoded.
Calling this method will fire the ResourceList event once for each search result, and will also populate the Resources properties.
If there are still more search results available to list when this method returns, the SearchMarker property will be populated. Continue to call this method until SearchMarker is empty to accumulate all pages of results in the Resources properties.
SendCustomRequest Method (SharePoint Control)
Sends a custom request to the Microsoft Graph API.
Syntax
sharepointcontrol.SendCustomRequest HttpMethod, RequestPath, RequestBody
Remarks
This method can be used to send arbitrary requests to the Microsoft Graph API.
Valid values for HttpMethod are:
- GET (default if empty)
- HEAD
- POST
- PUT
- PATCH
- DELETE
The value passed for RequestPath must already be URL-encoded in a manner acceptable to the Microsoft Graph API. The RequestBody parameter may be empty if not needed.
Usage
When this method is called, the control does the following:
- Builds a request URL, including query parameters, as follows:
- The specified RequestPath is appended to the Microsoft Graph API's "stable" endpoint, https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0 (however, see note below).
- All query parameters in the QueryParams properties are added to the request URL.
- Sends the request using the specified HttpMethod, the request URL build in step 1, the header information held by Authorization and OtherHeaders, and the given RequestBody (if non-empty).
- Stores the response headers in the ParsedHeaders properties, and the response body in the specified LocalFile, or ResourceData (using the same logic as DownloadFile).
If the response body is JSON data, the XPath, XText, and other X* configuration settings can then be used to navigate and extract information from it.
Note: Some responses returned by the Graph API include fully-qualified Graph API URLs for clients to use to obtain additional information (the next page of results in a listing, details about a long-running operation, etc.). As a convenience, any fully-qualified URL that begins with https://graph.microsoft.com/ can be passed for RequestPath to have the control make a request against it.
UpdateResource Method (SharePoint Control)
Updates the currently selected resource.
Syntax
sharepointcontrol.UpdateResource
Remarks
This method updates the metadata for the file or folder resource currently selected by RemoteId or RemotePath. For file resources, the file data can optionally be updated as well.
Usage
There must be a SharePointResource properties whose ResourceId or ResourcePath property matches RemoteId or RemotePath before this method is called.- If necessary, call GetResourceInfo or ListResources to ensure an item with the resource's latest information is present in the Resources properties.
- Modify the item's Resource* properties as desired; the following properties are supported:
- ResourceDescription (only updated if not empty)
- ResourceName
- ResourceParentId (only updated if not empty)
- ResourceParentPath (only updated if not empty and ResourceParentId is empty)
- For file resources, you may set LocalFile or ResourceData if you wish to update the file data on the server. (Refer to UploadFile for more information about simple vs. resumable uploads and encrypting the file data before uploading.)
- Finally, call this method to update the resource.
// Load the latest information about the resource into the Resources collection.
sharepoint.RemotePath = "/folder/CoolStuff1.txt";
sharepoint.GetResourceInfo();
// We'll update the file resource's name, description, and content.
sharepoint.ResourceData = "new file content";
sharepoint.Resources[0].Name = "CoolStuff2.txt";
sharepoint.Resources[0].Description = "This is a text file with cool stuff in it";
sharepoint.UpdateResource();
Name Conflict Resolution
When updating a resource's name and/or parent, keep in mind that the server's name conflict resolution behavior will follow these steps:- If the RenameIfExists configuration setting is enabled, the server will modify the new name of the resource to be unique, if necessary. Refer to the RenameIfExists configuration setting for more information.
- Otherwise, if the Overwrite property is enabled, the server will replace the existing (other) resource with the one being updated.
- Otherwise, the server will return an error.
UploadFile Method (SharePoint Control)
Uploads a new file resource.
Syntax
sharepointcontrol.UploadFile FileName
Remarks
This method uploads a new file resource, with the given FileName (which should include a file extension), to the folder resource currently selected by RemoteId or RemotePath. The Id of the newly-created file resource is returned.
If the ClientCreatedTime and/or ClientModifiedTime configuration settings are non-empty when this method is called, the corresponding timestamps will be submitted with the file upload request.
If LocalFile is set the file will be uploaded from the specified path. If LocalFile is not set the data in ResourceData will be used.
To encrypt the file before uploading it, set EncryptionAlgorithm and EncryptionPassword.
Upload Notes
SharePoint offers two ways to upload a file. For smaller files a simple upload option is provided to upload data in one request. This is the default option. For larger files, uploads can be fragmented into multiple pieces, allowing resuming of uploads that may be interrupted.
Simple
By default the control uses the simple upload mechanism.
sharepoint.LocalFile = "../MyFile.zip";
sharepoint.UploadFile("MyFile.zip");
Resumable
To enable resumable uploads set UseResumableUpload to . This is recommended for large files. The control will automatically fragment the specified file into smaller pieces and upload each individually. FragmentSize may be set to specify the size of the fragment if desired. The default fragment size is 10 MB.
When UseResumableUpload is set to and UploadFile is called, a resumable upload session is started by the control. ResumeURL is populated with a URL identifying the session (this value may be needed for additional operations if the upload does not complete normally).
During a resumable upload, the FragmentComplete event fires after each fragment is uploaded to indicate overall progress. The control also updates StartByte as necessary to indicate the current offset in the file.
If the upload is interrupted for any reason, resuming it is easy. First, verify that ResumeURL and StartByte are populated (if the same instance of the control is used, they should already be populated, and no special action should be needed). Then call UploadFile again to resume the upload at the specified StartByte offset.
Note that if the upload is not resumed after some time the upload session will expire.
PollUploadStatus may be used to check the status of a resumable upload, including when it will expire (which is stored in the UploadExpDate configuration setting).
An interrupted upload can be aborted explicitly using the AbortUpload method.
sharepoint.LocalFile = "../MyFile.zip";
sharepoint.UploadFile("MyFile.zip");
//The transfer is interrupted and UploadFile() above fails. Later, resume the download.
//Using the same instance StartByte and ResumeURL are already populated from the previous
//upload attempt.
sharepoint.UploadFile("MyFile.zip");
Name Conflict Resolution
If the desired FileName is already in use, the server's name conflict resolution behavior will follow these steps:- If the RenameIfExists configuration setting is enabled, the server will modify the name of the new file resource to be unique. Refer to the RenameIfExists configuration setting for more information.
- Otherwise, if the Overwrite property is enabled, the server will replace the existing file resource with the newly-uploaded one.
- Otherwise, the server will return an error.
DocumentLibraryList Event (SharePoint Control)
Fires once for each document library returned when listing document libraries.
Syntax
Sub sharepointcontrol_DocumentLibraryList(Id As String, Name As String, Description As String, OwnerId As String, OwnerName As String)
Remarks
This event fires once for each document libraries returned when ListDocumentLibraries or GetDocumentLibraryInfo is called.
Id is the Id of the document library.
Name is the name of the document library.
Description holds the description of the document library.
OwnerId is the Id of the document library's owner.
OwnerName is the name of the document library's owner.
EndTransfer Event (SharePoint Control)
This event fires when a document finishes transferring.
Syntax
Sub sharepointcontrol_EndTransfer(Direction As Integer)
Remarks
The EndTransfer event is fired when the document text finishes transferring from the server to the local host.
The Direction parameter shows whether the client (0) or the server (1) is sending the data.
Error Event (SharePoint Control)
Fired when information is available about errors during data delivery.
Syntax
Sub sharepointcontrol_Error(ErrorCode As Integer, Description As String)
Remarks
The Error event is fired in case of exceptional conditions during message processing. Normally the control fails with an error.
The ErrorCode parameter contains an error code, and the Description parameter contains a textual description of the error. For a list of valid error codes and their descriptions, please refer to the Error Codes section.
FragmentComplete Event (SharePoint Control)
Fires after each fragment of a resumable upload is completed.
Syntax
Sub sharepointcontrol_FragmentComplete(FragmentNumber As Integer, FragmentCount As Integer, Interrupt As Boolean)
Remarks
When UseResumableUpload is and UploadFile is called, this event will fire after each fragment is uploaded, providing an indication of overall upload progress.
FragmentNumber is the number of the current fragment that has completed. This value starts at 1.
FragmentCount is the total number of fragments that will be uploaded.
Interrupt can be set to to interrupt the upload. The upload may be resumed later.
Header Event (SharePoint Control)
Fired every time a header line comes in.
Syntax
Sub sharepointcontrol_Header(Field As String, Value As String)
Remarks
The Field parameter contains the name of the HTTP header (which is the same as it is delivered). The Value parameter contains the header contents.
If the header line being retrieved is a continuation header line, then the Field parameter contains "" (empty string).
Log Event (SharePoint Control)
Fired once for each log message.
Syntax
Sub sharepointcontrol_Log(LogLevel As Integer, Message As String, LogType As String)
Remarks
This event is fired once for each log message generated by the control. The verbosity is controlled by the LogLevel setting.
LogLevel indicates the level of message. Possible values are as follows:
0 (None) | No events are logged. |
1 (Info - default) | Informational events are logged. |
2 (Verbose) | Detailed data are logged. |
3 (Debug) | Debug data are logged. |
The value 1 (Info) logs basic information, including the URL, HTTP version, and status details.
The value 2 (Verbose) logs additional information about the request and response.
The value 3 (Debug) logs the headers and body for both the request and response, as well as additional debug information (if any).
Message is the log entry.
LogType identifies the type of log entry. Possible values are as follows:
- "Info"
- "RequestHeaders"
- "ResponseHeaders"
- "RequestBody"
- "ResponseBody"
- "ProxyRequest"
- "ProxyResponse"
- "FirewallRequest"
- "FirewallResponse"
Progress Event (SharePoint Control)
Fires during an upload or download to indicate transfer progress.
Syntax
Sub sharepointcontrol_Progress(Direction As Integer, BytesTransferred As Long64, TotalBytes As Long64, PercentDone As Integer)
Remarks
This event fires during an upload or download to indicate the progress of the transfer of the entire request. By default, this event will fire each time PercentDone increases by one percent; the ProgressStep configuration setting can be used to alter this behavior.
Direction indicates whether the transfer is an upload (0) or a download (1).
BytesTransferred reflects the number of bytes that have been transferred so far, or 0 if the transfer is starting (however, see note below).
TotalBytes reflects the total number of bytes that are to be transferred, or -1 if the total is unknown. This amount includes the size of everything in the request like HTTP headers.
PercentDone reflects the overall progress of the transfer, or -1 if the progress cannot be calculated.
Note: By default, the control tracks transfer progress absolutely. If a transfer is interrupted and later resumed, the values reported by this event upon and after resumption will account for the data that was transferred before the interruption.
For example, if 10MB of data was successfully transferred before the interruption, then this event will fire with a BytesTransferred value of 10485760 (10MB) when the transfer is first resumed, and then continue to fire with successively greater values as usual.
This behavior can be changed by disabling the ProgressAbsolute configuration setting, in which case the control will treat resumed transfers as "new" transfers. In this case, the BytesTransferred parameter will always be 0 the first time this event fires, regardless of whether the transfer is new or being resumed.
ResourceList Event (SharePoint Control)
Fires once for each resource returned when listing resources or changes.
Syntax
Sub sharepointcontrol_ResourceList(Id As String, Name As String, Path As String, ResourceType As Integer, CreatedTime As String, ModifiedTime As String, Size As Long64, ETag As String, Deleted As Boolean)
Remarks
This event fires once for each resource returned when ListResources, GetResourceInfo, Search, or ListChanges is called.
Id is the Id of the resource.
Name is the name of the resource.
Path is the path to the resource on the server. This parameter will always be empty for ListChanges.
ResourceType reflects the resource's type. Possible values are:
0 (odrtFile) | A file. |
1 (odrtFolder) | A folder. |
CreatedTime and ModifiedTime reflect the resource's creation and last modified timestamps. Timestamps are formatted according to ISO 8601 and are always in UTC time.
Size is the size of the resource (for folders, their contents' total size), in bytes. This parameter will always be -1 for ListChanges.
ETag is the ETag of the resource.
Deleted indicates whether the resource has been deleted. This parameter is only applicable for ListChanges, it will always be otherwise.
SiteList Event (SharePoint Control)
Fires once for each site returned when listing sites.
Syntax
Sub sharepointcontrol_SiteList(Id As String, Name As String, URL As String)
Remarks
This event fires once for each site returned when ListSites is called.
Id is the Id of the site.
Name is the name of the site.
URL is the site's web URL which can be used to view the site online.
SSLServerAuthentication Event (SharePoint Control)
Fired after the server presents its certificate to the client.
Syntax
Sub sharepointcontrol_SSLServerAuthentication(CertEncoded As String, CertSubject As String, CertIssuer As String, Status As String, Accept As Boolean)
Remarks
During this event, the client can decide whether or not to continue with the connection process. The Accept parameter is a recommendation on whether to continue or close the connection. This is just a suggestion: application software must use its own logic to determine whether or not to continue.
When Accept is False, Status shows why the verification failed (otherwise, Status contains the string OK). If it is decided to continue, you can override and accept the certificate by setting the Accept parameter to True.
SSLStatus Event (SharePoint Control)
Fired when secure connection progress messages are available.
Syntax
Sub sharepointcontrol_SSLStatus(Message As String)
Remarks
The event is fired for informational and logging purposes only. This event tracks the progress of the connection.
StartTransfer Event (SharePoint Control)
This event fires when a document starts transferring (after the headers).
Syntax
Sub sharepointcontrol_StartTransfer(Direction As Integer)
Remarks
The StartTransfer event is fired when the document text starts transferring from the server to the local host.
The Direction parameter shows whether the client (0) or the server (1) is sending the data.
Transfer Event (SharePoint Control)
Fired while a document transfers (delivers document).
Syntax
Sub sharepointcontrol_Transfer(Direction As Integer, BytesTransferred As Long64, PercentDone As Integer, Text As String)
Remarks
The Text parameter contains the portion of the document text being received. It is empty if data are being posted to the server.
The BytesTransferred parameter contains the number of bytes transferred in this Direction since the beginning of the document text (excluding HTTP response headers).
The Direction parameter shows whether the client (0) or the server (1) is sending the data.
The PercentDone parameter shows the progress of the transfer in the corresponding direction. If PercentDone can not be calculated the value will be -1.
Note: Events are not re-entrant. Performing time-consuming operations within this event will prevent it from firing again in a timely manner and may affect overall performance.
Config Settings (SharePoint Control)
The control accepts one or more of the following configuration settings. Configuration settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the control, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.SharePoint Config Settings
By default, this setting is enabled, allowing all pages of results to be accumulated in the appropriate collection properties.
Timestamps are formatted according to ISO 8601 and are always in UTC time.
Timestamps are formatted according to ISO 8601 and are always in UTC time.
When using the same instance of the control this setting typically does not need to be set. It may optionally be set to a URL from a previous copy operation before calling PollCopyStatus.
- anonymous (default) - Allows anyone with the link to access the resource.
- organization - Only allows those within the currently authenticated user's organization (who have the link) to access the resource. Note: Not valid when authenticated with a personal Microsoft account.
When downloading encrypted data with LocalFile set, the control will automatically create a temporary file at TempPath to hold the encrypted file contents. When the download is complete, the data is decrypted to LocalFile.
If the download is interrupted, the specified file will hold the partially downloaded encrypted file contents. Before resuming the download, this setting must be set to a valid file containing the partially encrypted file contents. See DownloadFile for details.
This setting accepts a hex encoded value.
This setting accepts a hex encoded value.
- 0 (default) - PBKDF1
- 1 - PBKDF2
In most cases, the default endpoint is the correct choice. This setting should only be changed if the control needs to use an endpoint associated with a specific National Cloud Deployment, in which case it should be set to one of the values shown in this table:
National Cloud | Endpoint |
Microsoft Graph global service | https://graph.microsoft.com (default) |
Microsoft Graph for US Government | L4: https://graph.microsoft.us
L5 (DOD): https://dod-graph.microsoft.us |
Microsoft Graph Germany | https://graph.microsoft.de |
Microsoft Graph China | https://microsoftgraph.chinacloudapi.cn |
Please note that each National Cloud Deployment also has its own corresponding application registration portal and OAuth endpoints, both of which are completely separate from those used for/by the global Microsoft Graph service. Applications that wish to work with a specific National Cloud Deployment must use that National Cloud Deployment's app registration portal and OAuth endpoints to register and authenticate in order for the control to successfully communicate using the National Cloud Deployment-specific endpoint. Refer to Microsoft's National Cloud Authentication article for more information.
The default value is 10485760 (10MB).
The value must be a multiple of 327680 (320 KB), or the server may return an error after the final fragment of a file is uploaded.
/sites/{ListSitesParams}
The exact functionality of the certain endpoints depends on the type of scopes that the application has authenticated with. If the application is using delegated permissions (authenticated as user) then the method can only list the sites that the user has access to. If the application is using application permissions (authenticated as application) then the method can list all the sites available in the domain.
By default, the ListSitesParams configuration setting is set to make a search endpoint call using the '*' character. This is to allow the ListSites method to be used by both the delegated and application permissions as the base "List Sites" endpoint is not supported for delegated permissions. However, the "Search All" endpoint does not always contains all of the sites that are accessable by the authenticated entity. ListSitesParams can be set to the following to change behavior of the ListSites method.
Endpoint | Paramater |
List Sites (Application Only) | "" |
Search All (Default) | "?search=*" |
Search Keyword | "?search={Search Term}" |
List Subsites | "/{SiteId}/sites" |
The default is -1, which causes the server's default (200) to be used.
If this setting is enabled (default), then when a transfer is interrupted and later resumed, the values reported by the Progress event will account for the data that was successfully transferred before the interruption.
If this setting is disabled, then the control will treat resumed transfers as "new" transfers, and the values reported by the Progress event will start at 0 rather than from the number of bytes already transferred.
Refer to the Progress event for more information.
The default value, 1, will cause the Progress event to fire each time the event's PercentDone parameter value increases by one percent. Setting this setting to 0 will cause the Progress event to fire every time data is transferred.
Note that the Progress event will always fire once at the beginning and end of a transfer, regardless of this setting's value. Also, if PercentDone cannot be calculated for a particular transfer (e.g., for downloads that use chunked transfer encoding), then the control will behave as if this setting were 0 for the duration of the transfer.
Keep in mind that the resource that the relative path points to must still be of the appropriate type (file or folder) depending on the method which will be called. Refer to RemoteId for more information.
The name the server chooses will be always unique; it will append a number to the end of the original name (for files, before the extension). That number will be incremented until a unique name is found.
This setting is disabled by default. Note that this setting takes precedence over the Overwrite property if both are enabled when UploadFile or CreateFolder is called.

When XPath is set to a valid path, XElement points to the name of the element, with XText, XParent, XSubTree, XChildCount, XChildName[i], and XChildXText[i] providing other properties of the element.
XPath syntax is available for both XML and JSON documents. An XPath is a series of one or more element accessors separated by the / character, for example, /A/B/C/D. An XPath can be absolute (i.e., it starts with /), or it can be relative to the current XPath location.
The following are possible values for an element accessor, which operates relative to the current location specified by the XPath accessors, which proceed it in the overall XPath string:
Accessor | Description |
name | The first element with a particular name. Can be *. |
[i] | The i-th element. |
name[i] | The i-th element with a particular name. |
[last()] | The last element. |
[last()-i] | The element i before the last element. |
name[@attrname="attrvalue"] | The first element with a particular name that contains the specified attribute-value pair.
Supports single and double quotes. (XML Only) |
. | The current element. |
.. | The parent element. |
For example, assume the following XML and JSON responses.
XML:
<firstlevel> <one>value</one> <two> <item>first</item> <item>second</item> </two> <three>value three</three> </firstlevel>
JSON:
{ "firstlevel": { "one": "value", "two": ["first", "second"], "three": "value three" } }
The following are examples of valid XPaths for these responses:
Description | XML XPath | JSON XPath |
Document root | / | /json |
Specific element | /firstlevel/one | /json/firstlevel/one |
i-th child | /firstlevel/two/item[2] | /json/firstlevel/two/[2] |
This list is not exhaustive, but it provides a general idea of the possibilities.

OAuth Config Settings
Bearer (default) | When the access token returned by the server is a Bearer type, the authorization string returned by Authorize will be in the format "Bearer access_token". This can be supplied as the value of the HTTP Authorization header. |
For example, when using the Authorization Code grant type, the OAuthRefreshToken property should be set to a valid refresh token. When using the Client Credential grant type however, the control does not need any additional properties set as it can already get a new access token without user interaction.
If set to (default) the redirect_uri will be sent in all cases. If set to the redirect_uri will only be sent if it has a value.
To parse the payload for specific claims, see OAuthJWTXPath.

XPath syntax is available for the payload of JWT based access tokens if available. An XPath is a series of one or more element accessors separated by the / character, for example: /A/B/C/D.
The following are possible values for an element accessor, which operates relative to the current location specified by the XPath accessors which proceed it in the overall XPath string:
Accessor | Description |
name | The first element with a particular name. Can be *. |
[i] | The i-th element. |
name[i] | The i-th element with a particular name. |
[last()] | The last element. |
[last()-i] | The element i before the last element. |
Description | JSON XPath |
Document root | /json |
Specific element | /json/element_one |
Username Claim (Microsoft Specific) | /json/preferred_username |
Registered Application Name Claim (Microsoft Specific) | /json/app_displayname |
This is not an exhaustive list by any means, but should provide a general idea of the possibilities. To get the text of the specified element, see OAuthJWTXText.

.NET
Gmail gmail = new Gmail();
gmail.Config("OAuthTransferredRequest=on");
gmail.Authorize();
Console.WriteLine(gmail.Config("OAuthTransferredRequest"));
C++
Gmail gmail;
gmail.Config("OAuthTransferredRequest=on");
gmail.Authorize();
printf("%s\r\n", gmail.Config("OAuthTransferredRequest"));
This setting can also be set to activate or deactivate the web server. Under normal circumstances, this would not be required as the control will automatically start and stop the web server when Authorize is called. In certain cases, it is required to start the webserver before calling Authorize. For example, if the OAuthReturnURL needs to be set to a relay server, then you will need to start the web server manually. Another example would be when the OAuthReUseWebServer is set to true, the server will not be automatically stopped, and this configuration setting must be set to "false" to stop the embedded web server.
The OAuthWebServerCertStoreType property specifies the type of the certificate store specified by OAuthWebServerCertStore. If the store is password protected, specify the password in OAuthWebServerCertStorePassword.
OAuthWebServerCertStore is used in conjunction with the OAuthWebServerCertSubject property in order to specify the certificate to be used during SSL.
Designations of certificate stores are platform dependent.
The following designations are the most common User and Machine certificate stores in Windows:
MY | A certificate store holding personal certificates with their associated private keys. |
CA | Certifying authority certificates. |
ROOT | Root certificates. |
When the certificate store type is cstPFXFile, this property must be set to the name of the file. When the type is cstPFXBlob, the property must be set to the binary contents of a PFX file (i.e., PKCS#12 certificate store).
Note: This is required when OAuthWebServerSSLEnabled is set to .
Note: This is only applicable when OAuthWebServerSSLEnabled is set to .
0 | User - This is the default for Windows. This specifies that the certificate store is a certificate store owned by the current user. Note: This store type is not available in Java. |
1 | Machine - For Windows, this specifies that the certificate store is a machine store. Note: This store type is not available in Java. |
2 | PFXFile - The certificate store is the name of a PFX (PKCS12) file containing certificates. |
3 | PFXBlob - The certificate store is a string (binary or Base64-encoded) representing a certificate store in PFX (PKCS12) format. |
4 | JKSFile - The certificate store is the name of a Java Key Store (JKS) file containing certificates. Note: This store type is available only in Java. |
5 | JKSBlob - The certificate store is a string (binary or Base64-encoded) representing a certificate store in Java Key Store (JKS) format. Note: This store type is available only in Java. |
6 | PEMKeyFile - The certificate store is the name of a PEM-encoded file that contains a private key and an optional certificate. |
7 | PEMKeyBlob - The certificate store is a string (binary or Base64-encoded) that contains a private key and an optional certificate. |
14 | PPKFile - The certificate store is the name of a file that contains a PPK (PuTTY Private Key). |
15 | PPKBlob - The certificate store is a string (binary) that contains a PPK (PuTTY Private Key). |
16 | XMLFile - The certificate store is the name of a file that contains a certificate in XML format. |
17 | XMLBlob - The certificate store is a string that contains a certificate in XML format. |
The special value "*" picks a random certificate in the certificate store.
The certificate subject is a comma-separated list of distinguished name fields and values. For instance, "CN=www.server.com, OU=test, C=US, E=support@nsoftware.com". Common fields and their meanings are as follows:
Field | Meaning |
CN | Common Name. This is commonly a hostname like www.server.com. |
O | Organization |
OU | Organizational Unit |
L | Locality |
S | State |
C | Country |
E | Email Address |
If a field value contains a comma, it must be quoted.
Note: This is required when OAuthWebServerSSLEnabled is set to .
The default value is localhost.
HTTP Config Settings
When True, the control adds an Accept-Encoding header to the outgoing request. The value for this header can be controlled by the AcceptEncoding configuration setting. The default value for this header is "gzip, deflate".
The default value is True.
If set to True (default), the control will automatically use HTTP/1.1 if the server does not support HTTP/2. If set to False, the control fails with an error if the server does not support HTTP/2.
The default value is True.
This property is provided so that the HTTP control can be extended with other security schemes in addition to the authorization schemes already implemented by the control.
The AuthScheme property defines the authentication scheme used. In the case of HTTP Basic Authentication (default), every time User and Password are set, they are Base64 encoded, and the result is put in the Authorization property in the form "Basic [encoded-user-password]".
The default value is False.
If this property is set to 2 (Same Scheme), the new URL is retrieved automatically only if the URL Scheme is the same; otherwise, the control fails with an error.
Note: Following the HTTP specification, unless this option is set to 1 (Always), automatic redirects will be performed only for GET or HEAD requests. Other methods potentially could change the conditions of the initial request and create security vulnerabilities.
Furthermore, if either the new URL server or port are different from the existing one, User and Password are also reset to empty, unless this property is set to 1 (Always), in which case the same credentials are used to connect to the new server.
A Redirect event is fired for every URL the product is redirected to. In the case of automatic redirections, the Redirect event is a good place to set properties related to the new connection (e.g., new authentication parameters).
The default value is 0 (Never). In this case, redirects are never followed, and the control fails with an error instead.
Following are the valid options:
- 0 - Never
- 1 - Always
- 2 - Same Scheme
- "1.0"
- "1.1" (default)
- "2.0"
- "3.0"
When using HTTP/2 ("2.0"), additional restrictions apply. Please see the following notes for details.
HTTP/2 Notes
When using HTTP/2, a secure Secure Sockets Layer/Transport Layer Security (TLS/SSL) connection is required. Attempting to use a plaintext URL with HTTP/2 will result in an error.
If the server does not support HTTP/2, the control will automatically use HTTP/1.1 instead. This is done to provide compatibility without the need for any additional settings. To see which version was used, check NegotiatedHTTPVersion after calling a method. The AllowHTTPFallback setting controls whether this behavior is allowed (default) or disallowed.
HTTP/3 Notes
HTTP/3 is supported only in .NET and Java.
When using HTTP/3, a secure (TLS/SSL) connection is required. Attempting to use a plaintext URL with HTTP/3 will result in an error.
The format of the date value for IfModifiedSince is detailed in the HTTP specs. For example:
Sat, 29 Oct 2017 19:43:31 GMT.
The default value for KeepAlive is .
0 (None) | No events are logged. |
1 (Info - default) | Informational events are logged. |
2 (Verbose) | Detailed data are logged. |
3 (Debug) | Debug data are logged. |
The value 1 (Info) logs basic information, including the URL, HTTP version, and status details.
The value 2 (Verbose) logs additional information about the request and response.
The value 3 (Debug) logs the headers and body for both the request and response, as well as additional debug information (if any).
The headers must follow the format "header: value" as described in the HTTP specifications. Header lines should be separated by CRLF (Chr$(13) & Chr$(10)) .
Use this configuration setting with caution. If this configuration setting contains invalid headers, HTTP requests may fail.
This configuration setting is useful for extending the functionality of the control beyond what is provided.
.NET
Http http = new Http();
http.Config("TransferredRequest=on");
http.PostData = "body";
http.Post("http://someserver.com");
Console.WriteLine(http.Config("TransferredRequest"));
C++
HTTP http;
http.Config("TransferredRequest=on");
http.SetPostData("body", 5);
http.Post("http://someserver.com");
printf("%s\r\n", http.Config("TransferredRequest"));
Note: Some servers (such as the ASP.NET Development Server) may not support chunked encoding.
The default value is False and the hostname will always be used exactly as specified. Note: The CodePage setting must be set to a value capable of interpreting the specified host name. For instance, to specify UTF-8, set CodePage to 65001.
When True (default), the control will check for the existence of a Proxy auto-config URL, and if found, will determine the appropriate proxy to use.
Override the default with the name and version of your software.
TCPClient Config Settings
If the FirewallHost setting is set to a Domain Name, a DNS request is initiated. Upon successful termination of the request, the FirewallHost setting is set to the corresponding address. If the search is not successful, an error is returned.
Note: This setting is provided for use by controls that do not directly expose Firewall properties.
Note: This setting is provided for use by controls that do not directly expose Firewall properties.
Note: This configuration setting is provided for use by controls that do not directly expose Firewall properties.
0 | No firewall (default setting). |
1 | Connect through a tunneling proxy. FirewallPort is set to 80. |
2 | Connect through a SOCKS4 Proxy. FirewallPort is set to 1080. |
3 | Connect through a SOCKS5 Proxy. FirewallPort is set to 1080. |
10 | Connect through a SOCKS4A Proxy. FirewallPort is set to 1080. |
Note: This setting is provided for use by controls that do not directly expose Firewall properties.

Note: This value is not applicable in macOS.
In the case that Linger is True (default), two scenarios determine how long the connection will linger. In the first, if LingerTime is 0 (default), the system will attempt to send pending data for a connection until the default IP timeout expires.
In the second scenario, if LingerTime is a positive value, the system will attempt to send pending data until the specified LingerTime is reached. If this attempt fails, then the system will reset the connection.
The default behavior (which is also the default mode for stream sockets) might result in a long delay in closing the connection. Although the control returns control immediately, the system could hold system resources until all pending data are sent (even after your application closes).
Setting this property to False forces an immediate disconnection. If you know that the other side has received all the data you sent (e.g., by a client acknowledgment), setting this property to False might be the appropriate course of action.
In multihomed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface), setting LocalHost to the value of an interface will make the control initiate connections (or accept in the case of server controls) only through that interface.
If the control is connected, the LocalHost setting shows the IP address of the interface through which the connection is made in internet dotted format (aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd). In most cases, this is the address of the local host, except for multihomed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface).
Setting this to 0 (default) enables the system to choose a port at random. The chosen port will be shown by LocalPort after the connection is established.
LocalPort cannot be changed once a connection is made. Any attempt to set this when a connection is active will generate an error.
This configuration setting is useful when trying to connect to services that require a trusted port on the client side. An example is the remote shell (rsh) service in UNIX systems.
If an EOL string is found in the input stream before MaxLineLength bytes are received, the DataIn event is fired with the EOL parameter set to True, and the buffer is reset.
If no EOL is found, and MaxLineLength bytes are accumulated in the buffer, the DataIn event is fired with the EOL parameter set to False, and the buffer is reset.
The minimum value for MaxLineLength is 256 bytes. The default value is 2048 bytes.

Note: This value is not applicable in Java.
By default, this configuration setting is set to False.
0 | IPv4 only |
1 | IPv6 only |
2 | IPv6 with IPv4 fallback |
SSL Config Settings
When enabled, SSL packet logs are output using the SSLStatus event, which will fire each time an SSL packet is sent or received.
Enabling this configuration setting has no effect if SSLProvider is set to Platform.
The path set by this property should point to a directory containing CA certificates in PEM format. The files each contain one CA certificate. The files are looked up by the CA subject name hash value, which must hence be available. If more than one CA certificate with the same name hash value exist, the extension must be different (e.g., 9d66eef0.0, 9d66eef0.1). OpenSSL recommends the use of the c_rehash utility to create the necessary links. Please refer to the OpenSSL man page SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations(3) for details.
The file set by this property should contain a list of CA certificates in PEM format. The file can contain several CA certificates identified by the following sequences:
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
... (CA certificate in base64 encoding) ...
-----END CERTIFICATE-----
Before, between, and after the certificate text is allowed, which can be used, for example, for descriptions of the certificates. Refer to the OpenSSL man page SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations(3) for details.
The format of this string is described in the OpenSSL man page ciphers(1) section "CIPHER LIST FORMAT". Please refer to it for details. The default string "DEFAULT" is determined at compile time and is normally equivalent to "ALL:!ADH:RC4+RSA:+SSLv2:@STRENGTH".
By default, OpenSSL uses the device file "/dev/urandom" to seed the PRNG, and setting OpenSSLPrngSeedData is not required. If set, the string specified is used to seed the PRNG.
If set to True, the control will reuse the context if and only if the following criteria are met:
- The target host name is the same.
- The system cache entry has not expired (default timeout is 10 hours).
- The application process that calls the function is the same.
- The logon session is the same.
- The instance of the control is the same.

When set to 0 (default), the CRL check will not be performed by the control. When set to 1, it will attempt to perform the CRL check, but it will continue without an error if the server's certificate does not support CRL. When set to 2, it will perform the CRL check and will throw an error if CRL is not supported.
This configuration setting is supported only in the Java, C#, and C++ editions. In the C++ edition, it is supported only on Windows operating systems.
When set to 0 (default), the control will not perform an OCSP check. When set to 1, it will attempt to perform the OCSP check, but it will continue without an error if the server's certificate does not support OCSP. When set to 2, it will perform the OCSP check and will throw an error if OCSP is not supported.
This configuration setting is supported only in the Java, C#, and C++ editions. In the C++ edition, it is supported only on Windows operating systems.
Note: This configuration setting contains the minimum cipher strength requested from the security library. The actual cipher strength used for the connection is shown by the SSLStatus event.
Use this configuration setting with caution. Requesting a lower cipher strength than necessary could potentially cause serious security vulnerabilities in your application.
When the provider is OpenSSL, SSLCipherStrength is currently not supported. This functionality is instead made available through the OpenSSLCipherList configuration setting.
The value of this configuration setting is a newline-separated (CR/LF) list of certificates. For instance:

By default, the enabled cipher suites will include all available ciphers ("*").
The special value "*" means that the control will pick all of the supported cipher suites. If SSLEnabledCipherSuites is set to any other value, only the specified cipher suites will be considered.
Multiple cipher suites are separated by semicolons.

When TLS 1.3 is negotiated (see SSLEnabledProtocols), only the following cipher suites are supported:
- TLS_AES_256_GCM_SHA384
- TLS_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256
- TLS_AES_128_GCM_SHA256
SSLEnabledCipherSuites is used together with SSLCipherStrength.
Not all supported protocols are enabled by default. The default value is 4032 for client components, and 3072 for server components. To specify a combination of enabled protocol versions set this config to the binary OR of one or more of the following values:
TLS1.3 | 12288 (Hex 3000) |
TLS1.2 | 3072 (Hex C00) (Default - Client and Server) |
TLS1.1 | 768 (Hex 300) (Default - Client) |
TLS1 | 192 (Hex C0) (Default - Client) |
SSL3 | 48 (Hex 30) |
SSL2 | 12 (Hex 0C) |
Note that only TLS 1.2 is enabled for server components that accept incoming connections. This adheres to industry standards to ensure a secure connection. Client components enable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and TLS 1.2 by default and will negotiate the highest mutually supported version when connecting to a server, which should be TLS 1.2 in most cases.
SSLEnabledProtocols: Transport Layer Security (TLS) 1.3 Notes:
By default when TLS 1.3 is enabled, the control will use the internal TLS implementation when the SSLProvider is set to Automatic for all editions.
In editions that are designed to run on Windows, SSLProvider can be set to Platform to use the platform implementation instead of the internal implementation. When configured in this manner, please note that the platform provider is supported only on Windows 11/Windows Server 2022 and up. The default internal provider is available on all platforms and is not restricted to any specific OS version.
If set to 1 (Platform provider), please be aware of the following notes:
- The platform provider is available only on Windows 11/Windows Server 2022 and up.
- SSLEnabledCipherSuites and other similar SSL configuration settings are not supported.
- If SSLEnabledProtocols includes both TLS 1.3 and TLS 1.2, these restrictions are still applicable even if TLS 1.2 is negotiated. Enabling TLS 1.3 with the platform provider changes the implementation used for all TLS versions.
SSLEnabledProtocols: SSL2 and SSL3 Notes:
SSL 2.0 and 3.0 are not supported by the control when the SSLProvider is set to internal. To use SSL 2.0 or SSL 3.0, the platform security API must have the protocols enabled and SSLProvider needs to be set to platform.
This configuration setting is applicable only when SSLProvider is set to Internal.
If set to True, all certificates returned by the server will be present in the Encoded parameter of the SSLServerAuthentication event. This includes the leaf certificate, any intermediate certificate, and the root certificate.
When set, the control will save the session secrets in the same format as the SSLKEYLOGFILE environment variable functionality used by most major browsers and tools, such as Chrome, Firefox, and cURL. This file can then be used in tools such as Wireshark to decrypt TLS traffic for debugging purposes. When writing to this file, the control will only append, it will not overwrite previous values.
Note: This configuration setting is applicable only when SSLProvider is set to Internal.
Note: For server components (e.g., TCPServer), this is a per-connection configuration setting accessed by passing the ConnectionId. For example:
server.Config("SSLNegotiatedCipher[connId]");
Note: For server components (e.g., TCPServer), this is a per-connection configuration setting accessed by passing the ConnectionId. For example:

0x00000001 | Ignore time validity status of certificate. |
0x00000002 | Ignore time validity status of CTL. |
0x00000004 | Ignore non-nested certificate times. |
0x00000010 | Allow unknown certificate authority. |
0x00000020 | Ignore wrong certificate usage. |
0x00000100 | Ignore unknown certificate revocation status. |
0x00000200 | Ignore unknown CTL signer revocation status. |

0x80000000 | Ignore non-matching CN (certificate CN non-matching server name). |
This functionality is currently not available when the provider is OpenSSL.
The value of this configuration setting is a newline-separated (CR/LF) list of certificates. For instance:
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- MIIEKzCCAxOgAwIBAgIRANTET4LIkxdH6P+CFIiHvTowDQYJKoZIhvcNAQELBQAw ... Intermediate Cert... eWHV5OW1K53o/atv59sOiW5K3crjFhsBOd5Q+cJJnU+SWinPKtANXMht+EDvYY2w F0I1XhM+pKj7FjDr+XNj -----END CERTIFICATE----- \r \n -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- MIIEFjCCAv6gAwIBAgIQetu1SMxpnENAnnOz1P+PtTANBgkqhkiG9w0BAQUFADBp ... Root Cert... d8q23djXZbVYiIfE9ebr4g3152BlVCHZ2GyPdjhIuLeH21VbT/dyEHHA -----END CERTIFICATE-----
When specified the control will verify that the server certificate signature algorithm is among the values specified in this configuration setting. If the server certificate signature algorithm is unsupported, the control fails with an error.
The format of this value is a comma-separated list of hash-signature combinations. For instance:
component.SSLProvider = TCPClientSSLProviders.sslpInternal;
component.Config("SSLEnabledProtocols=3072"); //TLS 1.2
component.Config("TLS12SignatureAlgorithms=sha256-rsa,sha256-dsa,sha1-rsa,sha1-dsa");
The default value for this configuration setting is sha512-ecdsa,sha512-rsa,sha512-dsa,sha384-ecdsa,sha384-rsa,sha384-dsa,sha256-ecdsa,sha256-rsa,sha256-dsa,sha224-ecdsa,sha224-rsa,sha224-dsa,sha1-ecdsa,sha1-rsa,sha1-dsa.
To not restrict the server's certificate signature algorithm, specify an empty string as the value for this configuration setting, which will cause the signature_algorithms TLS 1.2 extension to not be sent.
The default value is ecdhe_secp256r1,ecdhe_secp384r1,ecdhe_secp521r1.
When using TLS 1.2 and SSLProvider is set to Internal, the values refer to the supported groups for ECC. The following values are supported:
- "ecdhe_secp256r1" (default)
- "ecdhe_secp384r1" (default)
- "ecdhe_secp521r1" (default)
The default value is set to balance common supported groups and the computational resources required to generate key shares. As a result, only some groups are included by default in this configuration setting.
Note: All supported groups can always be used during the handshake even if not listed here, but if a group is used that is not present in this list, it will incur an additional roundtrip and time to generate the key share for that group.
In most cases, this configuration setting does not need to be modified. This should be modified only if there is a specific reason to do so.
The default value is ecdhe_x25519,ecdhe_secp256r1,ecdhe_secp384r1,ffdhe_2048,ffdhe_3072
The values are ordered from most preferred to least preferred. The following values are supported:
- "ecdhe_x25519" (default)
- "ecdhe_x448"
- "ecdhe_secp256r1" (default)
- "ecdhe_secp384r1" (default)
- "ecdhe_secp521r1"
