Fetching workflow status from Extended Properties in SharePoint 2013 sequential workflow (Farm solutions) option

HI,
I am using VS 2012, I have selected the option "sharepoint sequential workflow (Farm solution) option and not the workflow App model.
Earlier in SharePoint 2010, the approver status column can be got from ExtendedProperties["TaskStatus"] and which contained either "#" or "@" as its value.
However, in SharePoint 2013, the ExtendedProperties does not contain the "TaskStatus" key. In the quickwatch, i was able to see the value as "#" associated to some guid key. In the debug mode,i can see the below:
(new System.Collections.Hashtable.HashtableDebugView(TaskPropertiesForManagerAfter.ExtendedProperties)).Items[12]
But I’m not sure how to get to it from the code?
How to retrieve the Task Status using ExtendedProperties in SharePoint 2013?
Thanks

Having problems getting SPD 2013 installed on my laptop because of a trial of O365, but I know in SPD 2010 you could find the BCC fields, etc... in the Advanced properties, it wasn't directly available via the common interface. I know 2013 is very
different from 2010, and if I can get it to install correctly, I will update, but look for an advanced property, or an XML view where you can find the FROM: field.

Reorder User Profile properties in SharePoint 2013.

Hi, I have created custom user profile properties in SharePoint 2013 under User Profile Service Application, now I want to change the order of properties as well as also want to move OOTB properties and custom properties from one section to another section.
Is there any Power Shell command available to move properties between sections?
Regards,

Hi Prakash,
Use the script in this blog to retrive user profile properties from a certain section.
http://stevemannspath.blogspot.in/2013/05/sharepoint-20102013-using-powershell-to.html
# Dynamic Settings
$mySiteUrl = "http://mysite.company.net"
$findProperty = "PictureUrl"
Next, we needed to establish the server context:
# Obtain Context based on site
$mySiteHostSite = Get-SPSite $mySiteUrl
$mySiteHostWeb = $mySiteHostSite.OpenWeb()
$context = Get-SPServiceContext $mySiteHostSite
From the context we can instantiate a ProfileManager object and retrieve all of the SharePoint User Profiles:
# Obtain Profiles from the Profile Manager
$profileManager = New-Object Microsoft.Office.Server.UserProfiles.UserProfileManager($context)
$AllProfiles = $profileManager.GetEnumerator()
$outputCollection = @()
Next, we loop through the profiles and retrieve the account name (for identification purposes) and the property we are interested in finding:
# Loop through profiles and retrieve the desired property
foreach ($profile in $AllProfiles)
$output = New-Object System.Object
$output | Add-Member -type NoteProperty -Name AccountName -Value $profile["AccountName"].ToString()
$output | Add-Member -type NoteProperty -Name $findProperty -Value $profile[$findProperty]
$outputCollection += $output
Finally, we list out the collection items that do not have a value for the property (ie. null):
# List all Accounts that do not contain the property
$outputCollection | Where-Object {[bool]$_.($findProperty) -ne $true}

# Dynamic Settings
$mySiteUrl = "http://mysite.company.net"

How to migrate files from different databases to sharepoint 2013?

Hello everyone,
I need to migrate files of various formats from two databases to SharePoint 2013 ? How should I pursue? Please explain..
Scenario : Two different databases on different systems have loads of files. I need to migrate them to SharePoint?
Any suggestions/ Answers

Hi,
You need to copy the database into your network shared folder or SharePoint Server where you wanted to attach this content DB to your newly created web application.
Hope and Afraid,
Same Domain has been used. I mean if you move the content db from the server 1 which using the AD1 for authenticate the users,
So your new server 2 and web application must have configured to authenticate the AD 1 users.Otherwise user not found exception will be thrown.
If not still you can change the site collection administrator for the site which is migrated from the server 1.

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that you failed to create a new farm.
It seems that several issues exist in IIS. Please go to IIS manager > each site > advanced settings > general > ID to see if it is beyond int32 range or includes non-number value. Besides, please reset IIS and reboot the SQL server.
Please have a try to create new farm with power shell.

Migrating from Moss 2007 to SharePoint 2013

I am reaching out here as we require some inputs around migrating the SharePoint based application from MOSS 2007 to 2013.Please find more details from below
Requirement:
Migrating SharePoint site collection (which contains just 1 Top level site and 2 libraries with in it and no item level/library level permissions exists) which is on MOSS 2007 with size of 500GB to SharePoint 2013, hence we like to know your inputs in related
to this
Note:
1) The site collection has its own separate content database
2) There are nearly 200 thousand documents where the document with higher version is 90
3) The documents are stored in the libraries with up to third level of folder structure
4) The site collection is created based on custom site definition (created using visual studio)
Few things that I like to mention/ask here
a) Having 500GB data in one single content database inj the MOSS 2007 environment does it impacts the site performance?
b) Migrating the site collection as is onto single content database (all 500 GB into one content database) into destination SharePoint 2013, does it will be a good practice? Hope SharePoint 2013 content database limit is 200 GB, hence moving 500GB
as is into one database will it be good practice?
c) Does database attach and detach works for the databases which are of size 500GB?
d) Can we do database attach and detach directly from MOSS 2007 to directly onto SharePoint 2013, without hopping onto SharePoint 2010 in between and then later to SharePoint 2013?
e) If moving 500GB data into one content database will not be a good approach, can we split it onto multiple databases?
f) If database attach and detach doesn’t help for databases which are of size 500GB, should we go for any tool based approach? If yes, which tool does best fit?

a) Having 500GB data in one single content database inj the MOSS 2007 environment does it impacts
the site performance?
Inder: Yes, it will impact site performance at large extended, recommended is 200 gb only. Check it IO of your disk to analyze performance issue
b) Migrating the site collection as is onto single content database (all 500 GB into one content
database) into destination SharePoint 2013, does it will be a good practice? Hope SharePoint 2013 content database limit is 200 GB, hence moving 500GB as is into one database will it be good practice?
Inder:
Content database size (all usage scenarios)
4 TB per content database
Supported
Content databases of up to 4 TB are supported when the following requirements are met:
Disk sub-system performance of 0.25 IOPs per GB. 2 IOPs per GB is recommended for optimal performance.
You must have developed plans for high availability, disaster recovery, future capacity, and performance testing.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc262787%28v=office.15%29.aspx#ContentDB
c) Does database attach and detach works for the databases which are of size 500GB?
Inder: Yes it does work
d) Can we do database attach and detach directly from MOSS 2007 to directly onto SharePoint 2013, without
hopping onto SharePoint 2010 in between and then later to SharePoint 2013?
Inder: No, you need to pass through 2010 and then 2013
e) If moving 500GB data into one content database will not be a good approach, can we split it onto
multiple databases?
Inder: you can go with 500 gb
f) If database attach and detach doesn’t help for databases which are of size 500GB, should we go for
any tool based approach? If yes, which tool does best fit
Inder: Below are few tools you can try

How to retrieve full flash solution from WSP if not than how to retrieve ascx files from Template folder in SharePoint 2013 ?

How to retrieve ascx file from the Template folder in SharePoint2013
My issue is, I have WSP only so I changed into zip and got my all web parts and also one dll file after that decrypted dll and got some C# code
mixing with some system generated code but not ascx file that is for front-end part. So my question is how we can retrieve full flash solution if not, at least ascx files So if we were on SharePoint 2010 we could have got those file from __Template__
folder but It’s on SharePoint 2013 and not able to get ascx.
If we can do so, than will be easy to get the task to be done
Suggestions would highly be appreciated. Thanks in Advance.

Hi Amit,
you can not move specific changes from Dev to production.
but you can follow this process to make your workflow as it is as in Dev:
Create a new workflow on the new list in Product.
Create at least one step, one condition and one action in this workflow.
1. In Dev server open your .xomal file as XML and copy the entire contents.
2.In Production server Open your .xoml file as XML and Paste the entire contents
3. repeat this operation for the xoml.rules file
4.Double click the .xoml file for the new workflow to open the workflow in the Workflow Designer and click Check Workflow to verify no errors and then click Finish to ensure the workflow is saved.
Whenever you need to make changes apply the same.
Please Mark Answer and Vote me if it will to resolve your issue

Hi,
To retrieve data from list in your provider-hosted app using SharePoint Client Object Model(CSOM), you can follow the links below for a quick start:

Update:In firefox its showing an error "no element found" for the app url.How do I verify if the app is added correctly?

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that the store app cannot be displayed in the site.
I recommend to make sure you have the permission to use the app.
You can also add the other apps to check whether it works.
In addition, please create a new web application without Host Headers.
Here is a similar thread for your reference:

Hi ,
According to your description, my understanding is that your list filter cannot work after Migrating from SharePoint 2010 to SharePoint 2013.
For your issue, please check your log files for any issues. Also you can refer to the blogs for troubleshooting SharePoint 2013 migration:
Firstly try running Test-SPContentDatabase on your source database for any issues -

Export Records from CRM 2011 to Sharepoint 2013

We currently have CRM 2011 and are about to install Sharepoint 2013.
We are wondering is it possible to export records from Entities in CRM 2011 to a folder in Sharepoint 2013?
If this is possible can it be automated to run on a schedule?
Any help on this is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

You can use a custom timer job in SharePoint 2013 to be scheduled to run. This job could interact with your CRM system to import the entities to a folder or List in SharePoint. Andrew has a link here:

Get/retreive managed metadata column value from Document Library using SharePoint 2013 JSOM

Hi,
I am trying to retrieve managed metadata column (NewsCategory) value in SharePoint 2013 Document library using JSOM.
I get "Object Object" rather than actual value.
I tried:-
var newsCat = item.get_item('NewsCategory');
alert(newsCat) //Displays [Object Object]
var newsCatLabel = newsCat.get_label();
var newsCatId = newsCat.get_termGuid();
But, I get the error "Object doesn't support property or method get_label()"
I also tried :-
var newsTags = item.get_item(' NewsCategory ');
for (var i = 0; i < newsTags.get_count() ; i++) {
var newsTag = newsTags.getItemAtIndex(i);
var newsTagLabel = newsTag.get_label();
var newsTagId = newsTag.get_termGuid();
Even now I get the error "Object doesn't support property or method get_count()"
I have included " NewsCategory " in the load request:- context.load(items, 'Include(File, NewsCategory)');
Any idea what the issue is? Do I have to add any *.js file using $.getScript?
I added following .js files
var scriptbase = _spPageContextInfo.webServerRelativeUrl + "/_layouts/15/";
$.getScript(scriptbase + "SP.Runtime.js", function () {
$.getScript(scriptbase + "SP.js", function () {
$.getScript(scriptbase + "SP.Core.js", function () {
Thanks in Advance,

Hi Patrick,
I already added those references. I just pasted the parts of script snippet in my initial post. To avoid confusion I am pasting here complete script.
2.1.1.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
var scriptbase = _spPageContextInfo.webServerRelativeUrl + "/_layouts/15/";
$.getScript(scriptbase + "SP.Runtime.js", function () {
$.getScript(scriptbase + "SP.js", function () {
$.getScript(scriptbase + "SP.Core.js", function () {
function getdata() {
var context = new SP.ClientContext.get_current();
var web = context.get_web();
var list = web.get_lists().getByTitle('Documents');
var camlQuery = new SP.CamlQuery();
var filterCategory = 'Solutions';
var IDfromTaxonomyHiddenList = 15;
camlQuery.set_viewXml('<View><Query><Where><Eq><FieldRef LookupId="TRUE" Name="'+filterCategory+'" /><Value Type="ID">' + IDfromTaxonomyHiddenList +'</Value></Eq></Where></Query></View>');
/*the above CAML query successfully gets all the list items matching the criteria including "NewsCategory" managed metadata column values
But when I try to display the value it retrieved it ouputs/emits Object Object rather than actual values */
var items = list.getItems(camlQuery);
context.load(items, 'Include(File,NewsCategory)');
context.executeQueryAsync(
Function.createDelegate(this, function (sender, args) {
if (items.get_count() > 0) {
var listItemEnumerator = items.getEnumerator();
while (listItemEnumerator.moveNext()) {
var oListItem = listItemEnumerator.get_current();
var file = oListItem.get_file();
var name = file.get_name();
var newsCat = oListItem.get_item('NewsCategory'); alert(newsTags.constructor.getName());
alert(newsCat) //Displays [Object Object]
var newsCatLabel = newsCat.get_label(); // Here it errors out with message "Object doesn't support property or method get_label()"
var newsCatId = newsCat.get_termGuid();
} //end while
}//end if
Function.createDelegate(this, function (sender, args) {
alert('Request failed. ' + args.get_message() + '\n' + args.get_stackTrace());
ExecuteOrDelayUntilScriptLoaded(getdata, "SP.Core.js");
</script>
In the above script "var name = file.get_name(); " gets the exact file name.
But the line "var newsCat = item.get_item('NewsCategory');
alert(newsCat) //Displays [Object Object] rather than actual value.
Issue resolved replace "oListItem.get_item('NewsCategory');" with oListItem.get_item('NewsCategory').get_label();"
Thanks

If the database servers are in a cluster then all you need to do is configure Load balancing for the SharePoint servers. Review this site for more information:

Installation of SharePoint 2013 three-tier farm installation

Is it an actual requirement that WFE1 and APP1 be separate servers (virtual or physical), or is recommended best practice?
And more than that, I was going to make DC1, WFE1, and APP1 all reside on the same virtual server. I'll take the spitballs, but again the question is: does this violate a software/hardware system requirement as well as recommended best practice,
or just the latter?
Thanks.

For SharePoint 2013, it is
not supported to install SharePoint on a DC. While you can also place all VMs on a single virtual server host, you do need to take into consideration that you're putting all of your eggs in a single basket. If that host fails, so does everything with it.
Consider clustering your virtual hosts with shared storage to at least provide failover capabilities.
