Reading values from lookup columns through custom workflow in SharePoint 2013

We are able to read the values of text, number columns through custom workflow (via coding) in SharePoint 2013. However, we are not able to read values from lookup columns. So, request anyone to provide help on this.
Thanks & regards,
Aditya

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you want to read values from lookup columns through custom workflow in SharePoint 2013.
Since the workflow just doesn't get lookup fields, let's give it something static to work with instead. If we can capture the ID of the lookup field and store that as a static value in our list, the workflow can happily use that to look up our related.

How to configure service endpoints of custom webservice in SharePoint 2013?

Hi,
I have created a custom webservice in SharePoint 2013. I placed it in a sub folder under the ISAPI folder. I followed the instructions of this article: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/ff521581(v=office.14).aspx. The webservice works
great, however when I try to send a large file I get the message "413 Request entity is too large".
After some searching I found out that you can create a web.config in the subfolder and define the endpoints and bindings, after which I get an error that there is already an endpoint defined for the specified URI. I believe this has something to do with
the BasicHttpBindingServiceMetadataExchangeEndpointAttribute but I'm not sure.
Can anyone help me solve this issue?
Regards,
Sander

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you want to configure service endpoints of custom webservice in SharePoint 2013.
Per my knowleadge, after you add a reference to Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.ServerRuntime, you can use the BasicHttpBindingServiceMetadataExchangeEndpointAttribute.
In VS go to the add reference and paste the following: C:\Windows\assembly\GAC_MSIL\Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.ServerRuntime.
In addition, please make sure you create the custom web service correctly.

Adding Custom Breadcrumb for SharePoint 2013 Custom Master-Page With A Custom Separator.

Hi All,
I have successfully converted an HTML file to a SharePoint 2013 Custom Master-Page with relevant style sheets. But when I used within the SharePoint site I could not find the breadcrumb. So I want to know how to do that? For that breadcrumb I need a custom
separator like an arrow like in the below.
As you can see the separator is a custom built one. To have this custom separator in my HTML I have used the following code snippet.
<div class="breadcrumb-desktop">
<span class="breadcrumb-links"><a href="#">SharePoint Site Home</a></span>
<span class="breadcrumb-links"><a href="#">Sub Link 01</a></span> Active Page
</div>
The styles are as like in the below.
.breadcrumb-desktop {
width: 100%;
font-family: Arial;
padding: 23px 0 40px;
float: left;
font-size: 0.75em;
line-height: 1.25;
.breadcrumb-desktop > span.breadcrumb-links:after {
content: " \203A ";
white-space: pre;
I have tried the following code snippet within the SharePoint site as


But it did not display as I wanted.
So how am I supposed to insert these to my Custom Master-Page's breadcrumb and style them? Please could someone help me to solve this?
Thanks and regards,
Chiranthaka

Hi Chiranthaka,
Please use the following code snippet in your html master page.
<div class="CustomBreadcrumbs">
You are here:

We can also customize a breadcrumb control, then add it in master page.

Customizing MYSITE in SharePoint 2013

In SharePoint 2013 we want our Intranet Home page to be the user's MYSITE. Is it possible to apply the corporate branding to MYSITE and also allow our Corporate Marketing and Communications team to publish corporate news / information,
polls, links (rollup web part for lists) to important communication in a section of MYSITE which all users will see in addition to their personal MYSITE information. The goal is to encourage Social media usage within the company.
Thanks
MP

Hello,
In order to apply corporate branding to the MySite host, you need to create your custom master page.
About publishing content there's a few OOTB WebParts that could do the job but if you want something that really suits your needs you might have to develop your own component.
Hope this helps.

Add attachment button to a custom new form SharePoint 2013

I'm creating a new custom form using SharePoint Designer 2013.
I would like to add a attachment button to be able to upload files and images. How can this be done?
See code below
<tr>
<td width="190px" valign="top" class="ms-formlabel">
<h3 class="ms-standardheader">
<nobr>Attach Files</nobr>
</h3>
</td>
<td valign="top" class="ms-formbody" id="attachmentsOnClient" style="width: 434px">
<span dir="ltr">
<input type="file" name="fileupload0" id="onetidIOFile" size="56" title="Name"></input>
</span>
</td>
<td width="100px" valign="top" class="ms-formbody">
<input name="Button1" type="button" value="Attach" onclick='OkAttach()' style="width: 6em;
height: 1.7em" id="attachOKbutton" />
<span id="idSpace"></span>
</td>
</tr>
<tr id="idAttachmentsRow">
<td nowrap="true" valign="top" class="ms-formlabel" width="20%">
<SharePoint:FieldLabel ControlMode="New" FieldName="Attachments" runat="server"/>
</td>
<td valign="top" class="ms-formbody" width="80%">
<SharePoint:FormField runat="server" id="AttachmentsField" ControlMode="New" FieldName="Attachments" __designer:bind="{ddwrt:DataBind('i','AttachmentsField','Value','ValueChanged','ID',ddwrt:EscapeDelims(string(@ID)),'@Attachments')}"/>
<script>
var elm = document.getElementById("idAttachmentsTable");
if (elm == null || elm.rows.length == 0)
document.getElementById("idAttachmentsRow").style.display='none';
</script>
</td>
</tr>
Im getting error :
Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'value' of undefined

Somewhere around this line:

Thanks in Advance

Create a custom list form or go to your NewForm.aspx using SharePoint Designer. Place the below code where you would like to insert the Attachment Field
<tr>
<td width="190px" valign="top" class="ms-formlabel">
<h3 class="ms-standardheader">
<nobr>Attach Files</nobr>
</h3>
</td>
<td valign="top" class="ms-formbody" id="attachmentsOnClient" style="width: 434px">
<span dir=”ltr”>
<input type=”file” name=”fileupload0″ id=”onetidIOFile” size=”56″ title=”Name”> </input>
</span>
</td>
<td width="100px" valign="top" class="ms-formbody">
<input name="Button1" type=”button” value="Attach" onclick='OkAttach()' style="width: 6em;
height: 1.7em" />
<span id="idSpace"></span>
</td>
</tr>

Possible to fill a list using a custom Workflow in Sharepoint 2013

Is it possible to develop a custom workflow that compares a Contact List and the Active Directory and add any missing people to the list? Or is this a functionality not available with workflows and sharepoint 2013?

Instead of workflow you can do this,
Have user profile service application set up ,which will run on daily basis by default(you can configure to run Hourly/Minutely also) to import all users along with user attributes(email, department ..etc) to SharePoint. Configuring UPS :

Find and item Search not working inside custom list in sharepoint 2013

HI,
In Sharepoint 2013 , i configured the Search. it is working in home page search Box and Find item search box inside custom list as well But one particualr custom list Find an item is not working. Any clue ?Thanks in Advance
Thanks
sanjay pradhan

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is “find an item” search box in a custom list not work in your environment.
As search box and “find an item” search box in your home page are working, so the search service application is working.
Do you have any customzation to the particular custom list ?
If No, I suggest you can full crawl the data in Central Administration ->Manage Service Application->” Search Service Application”-> Manage Content Sources” to test if it works.
Also, please check if you have set "Allow items from this list to appear in search results" in list settings->Advanced Setting to true

Bypass content-based format detection so I can use a custom iFilter in Sharepoint 2013 Search

Can I get SharePoint 2013 Search to bypass the content-based format detection and use the file extension to determine the format (and therefore the format handler so that I can use a customer iFilter)?
We have a proprietary file format which uses xml, and we use a specific filename extension to indicate the type of file. We have a custom iFilter to parse the file, because we only want some of the content to be indexed. The iFilter works with
Windows Search. I’m now trying to use our custom iFilter to search the same files with SharePoint 2013. SharePoint 2013 Search appears to determine a file’s format from its content and not from its file extension (I have confirmed this by changing
the extensions of .docx and .txt files). SharePoint 2013 search appears to use the built-in XML format handler to index our proprietary files. Can I get SharePoint 2013 Search to bypass the content-based format detection and use the file extension
to determine the format (and therefore the format handler)? I think SharePoint 2010 may allow this, but I can’t find out if/how it is done in SharePoint 2013.
I understand that built-in format handlers can’t be replaced by custom iFilters, but I don’t want to replace the XML format handler for .xml files.

Hi jeh271,
quite interesting, because as i know iPersistStream should be installed when you need to use ifilter when using windows search.
just curious, if you also restart the spsearchhostcontroller?
as i know the search should have the content-based format,we cant bypass it, if we bypass it, then it may broke.
i saw some thread about this before:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/sharepoint/en-US/944e6878-a7f0-4c0e-98b7-a7fb9faeef1b/bcs-connector-and-mimetypefield
ifilter example:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh694268(v=office.14).aspx
last time i did this, seems similar issue:
• The custom iFilter is working in SP 2010 but when we followed the same process of registering the iFilter in SP 2013, it was not working.
• So, we knew that we were some missing some extra step in registering the filter in SP 2013.
• Finally, we involved the Product group and we found out that we need to run an extra PowerShell commandlet apart from following the steps to register it in SP 2010 (given in this link:- http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh694268(v=office.14).aspx )
• We ran the commandlet described here in this article http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj219556.aspx.
• The New-SPEnterpriseSearchFileFormat cmdlet adds a new file format and a corresponding file name extension to the search parsing system. This binds the file format to a filter-based format handler in the search parsing system. Thus, the search parsing system can only parse the new file format if the user has installed a corresponding filter-based format handler, an IFilter, for the new file format. If the installed IFilter registers more than one file name extension, the user must use the New-SPEnterpriseSearchFileFormat cmdlet to add a new file format to the parsing system for each of these file name extensions. The user must also ensure that the file name extension of the new file format is a member of the file-type inclusion list. The file-type inclusion list specifies which files that are crawled, based on their file name extensions. The system will only consider the new file format after a restart of the content processing components
• The example for our scenario would be something like this:-
New-SPEnterpriseSearchFileFormat -SearchApplication $ssa -FormatId dwg -FormatName DWGFiles -MimeType application/dwg
• Then, we restarted the SharePoint Search Host controller service on the machine where you have installed the iFilter and this resolved our issue and we were able to successfully search with .dwg files using the custom iFilter.
i am not quite sure if search treating your file as an XML file, if it is true, perhaps you can check this xmlmapper:http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff795813(v=office.14).aspx

Setting up records management for a custom list in SharePoint 2013

In a workflow 2013, I am planing to 'declare a record' on a custom list. I am doing this since I do not want users to be able to change the custom list once the record is submitted to workflow 2013.
There are options in record declarations settings that I am not certain what to set like what values are appropriate in 'declaration of records can be performed by'.
Since I am my own administrator on my test SharePoint 2013 website, would you tell me what I can do at the administrator's site level to enable the 'mark a record and/or declare a record feature? Basically I would like to know what options to set for a custom
list so the records can not be modified once the custom list has been submitted to the workflow.

Hi Wendy,
There are 2 ways either in place records or records archive it will depend on your requirments.
check this article it will guide you about how to configure each way

List Custom filter in SharePoint 2013

I recently upgraded my company's SharePoint 2010 site to SharePoint 2013. Now users are complaining for the List Custom Filter box that was available in SharePoint 2010 but is missing in SharePoint 2013.
Is there a possibility to activate that feature in SharePoint 2013 in any way?

Hi Alex,
You can use Key filters to filter the list items per date entries.
1. Go to Site settings --> activate 'Metadata Navigation and Filtering' feature.
2. Go to List settings -->click 'Metadata navigation settings' under 'General Settings' -->Select the desired columns under 'Configure Key Filters' and click 'OK'.
Please note:
Fields that are available for use as navigation hierarchies include columns on this list that are one of the following types:
- Content Type
- Choice Field
- Managed Metadata Field
- Person or Group Field
- Date and Time Field
- Number Field
Hope this info helps you!

Creating custom scopes in SharePoint 2013

Guys,
Environment : SharePoint 2013
I want to provide the user with the ability to search from a custom search scope which has been deprecated in sharepoint 2013. How can i do this in 2013, also i would like to have
the custom scopes in a dropdown next to the search box so that the users can select from it.
off the quick reading that i did i have to create Result Source, query settings but if anyone can point me to an online link showing how to do it would be great.
Thanks
MM

The easiest way to do this is create a content type from your list. Then in your query, target the content type only for results and add that to your search options. That way when someone selects to search through that content type it will only
show results from that list of content that matches that type.
Let me know if that helps.
