Get blob properties REST API

This REST API request for get blob:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/azure/dd179440.aspx
and get blob properties:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/azure/dd179394.aspx
look the same: https://myaccount.blob.core.windows.net/mycontainer/myblob
When I issue this get request I get back both the property and the metadata. How do I just get the blob property? (I tried https://myaccount.blob.core.windows.net/mycontainer/myblob?comp=properties
as a shot in the dark but that didn't work. I got a verb not recognized error.)

HI
The different is there Request Method:
Get Blob is Get Method.
GET Method Request URI
Get Blob Properties is Head Method.
So when you create the Request, you need to set the Request Method to Head.
request.Method = "Head";

How to use WebCenter REST API to like or comment a activity

Hi all
I want to know how to realize like or comment function with REST APIs.
I execute a REST call with following url, but the 'like' counter is not be increased.
http://cdcjp77vm3.cn.oracle.com:8888/rest/api/activities/services/oracle.webcenter.community/objectTypes/groupSpace/objects/(s2518c69b_1989_4a63_8886_c32075c76b9c)/likes?&utoken=FDNA-Z7ekZuPnVSNoPWOqTJ2IzAE_w**
Is there anything i missed?
Can anyone give me an example about how to use this API to like or comment a activity?
Thanks
Qian

So Qian;
looking through the code this is how you can
Post a comment (POST)
/rest/api/activities/services/{serviceId}/objectTypes/{objectType}/objects/({objectId})/comments?startIndex={startIndex}&itemsPerPage={itemsPerPage}&utoken=blah
{key:val}
{text:'this is my comment)
Edit a comment (PUT)
So I haven't tried it but it should do the trick.. although I don't see update under capabilities so you may get blocked.
/rest/api/activities/services/{serviceId}/objectTypes/{objectType}/objects/({objectId})/comments?startIndex={startIndex}&itemsPerPage={itemsPerPage}&utoken=blah
id: {commentId},
text: 'changed my comment.. magic'
Delete a comment (DELETE)
/rest/api/activities/services/{serviceId}/objectTypes/groupSpace/objects/({objectId})/comments/{commentId}?utoken=blah
Like POST
/rest/api/activities/services/{serviceId}/objectTypes/{objectType}/objects/({objectId})/likes?startIndex={startIndex}&itemsPerPage={itemsPerPage}&utoken=blah
I passed it an empty object {} seemed to work for me.
Unlike (DELETE)
/rest/api/activities/services/oracle.webcenter.community/objectTypes/groupSpace/objects/({objectId})/likes/({likeId})?utoken=blah
Let me know if this works for you

Problem when selecting PublishingRollupImage using REST API using Javascript ?

Hii Guys,
I am developing a listing page of News using REST, the custom list contains Title, PublishingRollupImage, and other fields which is provided in the $select
http://xyz/_api/web/lists/getbytitle('News')/Items?$select=Title,Link,PublishingRollupImage
the column "PublishingRollupImage" is there and i can return the result by using normal JavaScript API with CAML query.
but REST calling while specifying this column is failing with this error
The field or property 'PublishingRollupImage' does not exist
Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.InvalidClientQueryException
please note that this is not the (hyperlink/image) field,
its an existing site columns (publishing image)

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you want to get Rollup Image data using REST API.
Per my knowledge, we can’t get it using REST API.
We can use Client Object Model to achieve it, the following code snippet for your reference:
var ctx = new SP.ClientContext();
var items = ctx.get_web().get_lists().getByTitle('Pages').getItems(new SP.CamlQuery());
ctx.load(items);
ctx.executeQueryAsync(function() {
// Get the first items rollup image, just as an example
var rollupImage = items.getItemAtIndex(0).get_item('PublishingRollupImage');
console.log(rollupImage);
If you still want to use the REST API, we can customize a We Service to achieve it.

Azure Rest API PUT Block Blob Returns "The specified resource does not exist" CORS

I am trying to upload a file to Azure Blob storage. For some reason when I try to put a new block blob on in the storage it tells me the resource does not exist. I am sure it is something silly I am missing.
According to the documentation:
The Put Blob operation creates a new block blob or page blob, or updates the content of an existing block blob. Updating an existing block blob overwrites any existing metadata on the blob. Partial updates are not supported with Put Blob; the content of the
existing blob is overwritten with the content of the new blob. To perform a partial update of the content of a block blob, use the Put Block List (REST API) operation.
CORS is setup and that seems okay.
When I do a preflight and get this:

REST API to get and update Task Data

On CPSC 9.4.1 R2, I am unable to find any REST API operation to get and update task data details (all the service form and dictionary fields).
Task operations only return limited task meta-data not the details of the task/requisition data submitted, fields, etc.
Does anyone know if such thing exist?
Thanks.

Hi Rakesh,
To enable anonymous Search REST queries, we need to create queryparametertemplate.xml and upload it to the correct library in SharePoint.
From your description I can know that you have created the file, then I recommend to check the things below:
Please use “QueryTemplatePropertiesUrl” instead of “queryparametertemplate” in the Search REST API query as following: &QueryTemplatePropertiesUrl='spfile://webroot/queryparametertemplate.xml'.
Make sure that the Query Properties you need have been added to the QueryProperties element in the queryparametertemplate.xml file.
Make sure that the query parameters you need have been added to the WhiteList element in the
queryparametertemplate.xml file. For example, if you want to use Refiners in the REST API, then the Refiners should be added to the
WhiteList element in the queryparametertemplate.xml file as following:
<a:string>Refiners</a:string>.
You can also debug setting properties in anonymous Search Rest queries following the link below:
http://www.mavention.com/blog/debugging-setting-properties-anonymous-search-rest-queries

How to get permission of a sharepoint list for a user using REST api

Hi there,
I have a requirement where i need to check the access permission of a user against a List or Library only using REST api from my remote salesforce app. [I already have access token and I am able to view list, add item etc..]
Say for example, I have to send the list name and user name, and get the result as Read, Write, Contribute(Manage), None. I need to display what permission does that user have for that List.
How do I achieve this. Please help me.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
For High and low bits, we can create a new SP.BasePermissions object to use like below:
function success(data){
var permissions = new SP.BasePermissions();
permissions.set(SP.PermissionKind.manageLists);
var hasPermission = permissions.hasPermissions(data.d.EffectiveBasePermissions.High, data.d.EffectiveBasePermissions.Low);
Here is a detailed article for your reference:

// var itemId = listItem.get_id();
urlOfAttachment = appWebUrl + "/_api/web/lists/GetByTitle('" + listName + "')/items(" + listItem + ")/AttachmentFiles/add(FileName='" + fileName + "')"
// use the request executor (cross domain library) to perform the upload
var reqExecutor = new SP.RequestExecutor(appWebUrl);
reqExecutor.executeAsync({

What is the best way to get storage data for hard disk using REST api

Hello All,
Given that I have disk info for virtual machine/role from service management REST api (for example using
GetRole) how I could retrieve container/blob related info for it?
So I have credentials for service management REST API, I have OSVirtualHardDisk info, but I am not sure how to detect correctly to which storage account connect and than which container to use. Yes, I know that there is OSVirtualHardDisk .MediaLink property
which contains storage account name and container inside of it but I am not sure it is good practice to assume about it format. Alternatively I have another solution - just retrieve all storage accounts from Service management REST, then compare url
of each account with disk's MediaLink. And use appropriate storage account for further data retrieve. But seem to me it could retrieve too many info.
So generally I am trying to find correct way to join service management REST api and Storage Services REST API for disks

Hi,
From my experience, your first approach is correct. The media link exactly points to the location of the blob. With the link, you can access the blob if you have the storage account key. If you want to extract more information, such as what
the container is and what the blob is, you can parse the link.
>> From my point of view it is bad way to retrieve storage account name and container.

Using the REST API for files, how do I get information on all the folders and files in a folder?

I have an app that can successfully get a list of a folders content. However, by default the list is limited to 200 entries. I luckily ran into this limit when getting the list on a folder that contained 226 entries and realized I needed to then request
a list of the next items but it wasn't obvious from the REST API document how to do that. I tried sending the skipToken query parameter and setting it to 0 initially and incrementing each time I sent the request but always got the same 200 items back. So,
how do I get the list of files and folders beyond the initial list?

In SP2013 the skiptoken query parameter does not work with list items. You can look at the link below which discusses using the "__next" parameter.
