Hi,
According to your description, you might want to get data from Office 365 SharePoint Online(also known as host web) and pass to the Provider Hosted App which is hosted
in Windows Azure site.
I would suggest you take a look at the links below about accessing data from the host web

A high-trust app for SharePoint is is primarily intended for use in an on-premises environment. The high-trust
app cannot be installed to Microsoft SharePoint Online, and the remote components are typically installed on premises, too, within the corporate firewall. Thus, the instances of the app for SharePoint are specific to each individual company.

Office 365 Files REST API - Get direct children in the root of the default document library

I'm trying to work with Office 365 Files REST API which works just fine except one thing that I'm struggling with.
What I need for my application is to make an explorer like browse capability for OneDrive for business Document Library.
My problem is that I don't know how to get the direct children in the root of the Document library
The API request
GET ../_api/files will
retrieve all files and folders in the default document library, including files and folders from sub-directories.
What I need is basically the functionality of the API request
GET ../_api/files(<folder_path>)/Children
that works also for the root folder of the Document library. The problem is that I couldn't find a way set <folder_path> as the root folder.
I found out that the API call ../_api/web/getfolderbyserverrelativeurl(<folder_server_relative_path>)/Folders and _api/web/getfolderbyserverrelativeurl(<folder_server_relative_path>)/Files works as expected resulting the only the direct
children of the root folder if the folder_server_relative_path is the path of the document library. The problem with this API call is that it's requires server relative path of the (default) document library (which i don't have) and the result has a different
schema compared to the ../_api/files REST API call.
Can somebody help me with this problem?
David

First thanks for the fast answer. Let me explain my use case in more details.
I'm trying to work with the new summer release of the
Office 365 API tool for Visual Studio 2013 (update 3)
I found no reasonable way to retrieve the direct children of the root folder from my One Drive for business Document Library using the newly added SharePointClient library.
The API call of `SharePointClient.Files` will retrieve all the files and folders from the whole document library including sub-folders. So in order to get only the direct children I have to page through all the documents and folders and analyze their URL, which
is not acceptable for my application scenario. For a sub-folder I can get the direct children like this: `SharePointClient.Files["<folder_id>"].ToFolder().Children` This is what I need but it can't be applied to the root folder.
So what I did I've checked what REST API calls this library makes and I've tried to find out if there is a way to achieve my goal at least using direct REST API call. It seems like the functionality is missing from the REST API itself.
The http://site
url/_api/web/lists/GetByTitle(‘libraryname’)/items API call also retrieves all the items hierarchy from the library (including items from sub-folders) and the result XML "schema" (fields and the meaning of the ID) differs from the one used
by the calls by SharePointClient library. (for example the "Id" is a number when the /items is called but when
/_api/files is called the "Id" is the relative path to the document library)
Basically what I need can be achieved with the call to http://site url/_api/web/lists/GetByTitle(‘libraryname’)/rootfolder/files and http://site
url/_api/web/lists/GetByTitle(‘libraryname’)/rootfolder/folders but again the schema of the result differs from the one used in SharePointClient
library. This means that in order to get the direct children of the root I will need to re-implement a good part of the SharePointClient library. It seams like there is 2 kind of REST API is implemented. ( missing "Id" and "url"
fields, etc)
Also there is no convenient way to get the Name or the GUID of the default document library which the SharePointClient.Files
(https://site_url/_api/file) automatically
uses. The DiscoveryContext.DiscoverCapability for "MyFiles" doesn't gives any hint either.

How to get User Profile Service information on user OTHER THAN current user?

So much information on how to autopopulate information for the current user or the logged in user in InfoPath. But what about other users? What if there's a field that's 99/100 times going to be the same person, but it's not the person that's
logged in?
I would like not just to autopopulate a person field to be a specific user (which is not the current user), but I'd also like to autopopulate surrounding fields for that user's Title and Department.
For instance, consider the following 6 fields.
1. Current User Name:
2. Current User Title:
3. Current User Department:
4. Current User’s Supervisor’s Name:
5. Current User’s Supervisor’s Title:
6. Current User’s Supervisor’s Department:
I know how to get the first three; the internet is swarming with that information.
I'm struggling the last three; searching for this information is impossible without turning up information on current user instead.
The furthest I've gotten so far is to autopopulate Current User's Supervisor's Name by:
1. Show Advanced View on Fields pane
2. Expand my Field (which is really a group) called IT Manager Name
3. Expand what shows up under that which is pc:Person
4. Right click AccountId and choose Properties
5. Set Default value to [our domain]\[IT Manager's ads username]
This solves how to get that 4th field my example list above Current User's Supervisor's Name to autopopulate, but how do I then get the Title and Department from the value I set in step 5 [our domain]\[IT Manager's ads username]? Or is there a different/better
way altogether to go about getting a non-current user's info to autopopulate in InfoPath form fields?
*UPDATE*
I just want to clarify that I'm not asking if there's a way to autopopulate the current user's supervisor. I'm aware that Manager is one of the User Profile service fields. But the point is that I want to have a field in which the current
user fills in a username (different than his or her own), and to have User Profile Service called on that provided username to autopopulate Title and Department in surrounding fields. The question is about how to call information with User Profile Service
on any provided username, specifically what steps to take to set this up in InfoPath Designer.

Have a look at the REST API. You can use the /_api/sp.userprofiles.peoplemanager/getpropertiesfor endpoint to query the user profile service for user profile properties of any user.
The API is documented here: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/dn790354.aspx and here https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/jj163800.aspx

Hi Christoph,
From the article you mentioned, it needs add JPG file type to Search Service Application, which was not supported for SharePoint online.
I tried to add Picture content type to normal document library and tested the issue, it still displayed as item in Search results.
However, if I created a Picture Library and add Document content type to it, both image and document can be previewed in search result.

How to get user profile details using first name and last name of the user?

Is it possible to get profile details using firstname and lastname of the user with SharePoint UserProfile service?
any thoughts?
SP 2010 is history SP 2013 is mystery :)

You could try the search method of UserProfileManager.
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.office.server.userprofiles.userprofilemanager.search.aspx
SPServiceContext serviceContext = SPServiceContext.GetContext(SPContext.Current.Site);
UserProfileManager upm = new UserProfileManager(serviceContext);
string[] searchPattern = { "Firstname", "Lastname"};
ProfileBase[] searchResults = upm.Search(searchPattern);
foreach (ProfileBase profile in searchResults)
//Do something
//Console.WriteLine(profile.DisplayName);

Best way to create a conact list from the user profile properties

We have a customer looking for a phone book utility, starting with a table showing main user information and with some search options. We would like o base it on the user profile properties and not to create an indipendent studion record browser porlet.
What is best way to create a conact list from the user profile properties ?

I did something like this using search. It can get messy, so you need to take care with it.
* Identify the properties you want to make accessible to search (ex: name, etc.)
- add them to the user property map
- flag them as searchable
* I broke down and used the native server API. I'd still suggest this approach.
* Write some simple code to do vcard export if you like
(my code is all in vb.net)
I really believe this is the "right" approach, but honestly, this was a bit painful and has been
messy for us given some other business issues. (to my chagrin we have users with 2-letter last
names...)
I have code you're welcome to poke at, but it's more or less slapped together and has various
different search methods commented out so you can see how I tinkered w/ the remote vs. server
API.
If you'd like it mail me at [email protected] and I'll send you a zipped copy w/ a
readme. I hope it may be useful to you as both a starting reference.

How to stop user profiles clean-up job from deleting Active users.

Hi,
Somehow bunch of active users profile are marked for deletions and their managers have received email saying it will be deleted in X days.
I know if we disable My Site Clean Up Job, it will not delete any profiles. But I want that job to continue running and stop active user profiles from getting deleted.
How do I proceed here...
Thanks,
Abhilash

Hi Abhilash,
I understand SharePoint 2010 MySite clean up timer job is deleting active user profiles.
Firstly, I need to confirm with you that the timer job will work on below two situations:
1.When you use the web UI in Central Administration to delete a user profile
2.When a user who was included in a previous user profile import is no longer included in the import.
The second point bears a little more explanation, please refer to How Is A User Profile Deleted?
in the article below:
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/kaevans/archive/2012/06/25/top-recommendations-for-managing-the-my-site-cleanup-timer-job.aspx
Let me know if you situation is not included in the above two.
