Specifying the site URL to upload to in Sitefinity 4.0 SDK?

Hi,

I've built a basic console app to upload documents to a document library on my Sitefinity 4 site. However, I have not specified the location of the site itself.

Thus, how can I upload a document to a library when the code does not describe where the site is? How can I thus specify the site url?

Bare in mind, I am on a shared hosting provider (DiscountASP.NET)...

Thanks

Hi G S S,

You can use DocumentLibraryService

sitefinity/services/content/documentlibraryservice.svc/help

There is a SaveContent method that you can use.

Kind regards,

Hi,

Thanks for the link.

However, could you give an example of how to invoke this from C#, attaching a document for upload?

Thanks

Hi G S S,

1. You can access the service with javascript by using Sys.Net.WebRequest()
2. Using server side code  and making HttpWebRequest

You need to create the content object first and then save it through the service.

Hi,

How can I add the file to the web service request? I used the Content object previously,but I'd now need to serialize this in my request?

Looking at the request example, it's not obvious how the file to upload is included.


Could you give a full C# example of how I'd upload a file to the server using that service?

EDIT: It looks like this link ( www.sitefinity.com/.../content-items-create.html) is what I need for creating and saving a content item.

Thanks
