SharePoint hosted App that listens and log SharePoint Events

Basically, what I need, is something that can listen to all events fired in SharePoint and write them to a custom list.
I was thinking of making this as a SharePoint hosted app because it has to work on SP Online as well.
The idea is then, to let a provider hosted app read the custom list every x minutes and do it's own logic depending on the events it reads from the custom list.
So the question is, how do I catch all the events fired in SharePoint and should it be a SharePoint hosted app that does it?
Any thoughts on how to solve this?
Thanks.
Thomas Bomann, simplySo

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to track all the event fired in SharePoint .
Listen to the events in SharePoint needs Server side code, see the article below:
Programming Event Handling in Windows SharePoint Services
In SharePoint hosted app, it needs to use Client Object Model, so there is no such Client API to meet the requirement.
More information:

  • SharePoint Provider Hosted App that can update existing SharePoint Task List

    Note: I am unable to take advantage of the Microsoft.SharePoint library directly. Adding a reference results in a 32bit/64bit library mismatch error.
    I have to find a solution that uses only the Microsoft.SharePoint.Client extension. 
    I am looking for example code where provider-hosted SharePoint App loads a SharePoint Task List View that allows users to interact with the tasks.
    So far I have only been able to programmatically create and then load the SharePoint tasks list, create and populate a DataTable object and set the datasource of a GridView object to that DataTable.
    I am unable to trigger my method linked to my checkbox within the gridview.
    Ideally I would like to just customize a Task View that already has this functionality.
    Here is my default.aspx.cs code-behind file:
    using System;
    using System.Collections.Generic;
    using System.Linq;
    using System.Web;

    Response.End();
    break;
    protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    // The following code gets the client context and Title property by using TokenHelper.
    // To access other properties, the app may need to request permissions on the host web.
    var spContext = SharePointContextProvider.Current.GetSharePointContext(Context);
    using (var clientContext = spContext.CreateUserClientContextForSPHost())

    Hi,

    SP.Web web = clientContext.Web;
    SP.List list = web.Lists.GetByTitle("General Tasks");

  • Provider Hosted App - Exception Handling and Logging

    Hello,
    I would like to use file system to log the exceptions (The IIS server in which the APP is configured) for Provider Hosted App - Could anyone share some blogs/links related to that?
    Thanks in advance,

    Well the first time, I asked the question, I think I
    was not so clear. Please let me explain this in
    detail. I am not architect, so correct me if I am
    wrong.
    I want to use log4J but definitely want to avoid using
    them directly in our package, idea is to create
    wrappers around all the external API, jar we are
    using. At logging side I feel little comfortable.
    But having little difficulty in thinking and designing
    about Exception handling framework.
    1. My aim is to create a general framework in 3 broad
    categories (For Presentation tier, For Business tier,
    for Data Access tier)
    2. For each tier if you import those already created
    framework classes, all developers should be just able
    to use the methods of exception framework and use them
    in catch block and throw them.
    Example:- I would like to create a class called
    MyProjectExceptionDecider, which will decide the type
    of exception in Business Tier and then use my
    MyProjectExceptionErrorParser, which reads the XML
    document and gets a related message number and error
    message.
    This MyProjectExceptionErrorParser then passes the
    right exception to MyProjectExceptionDisplayer which
    will display the exception with right message and
    message number.
    And something more like this. I am not yet getting
    complete picture.
    3. So, if you have done something similar and if you
    have the class diagram and sequence diagram for such
    exception handling, I would be grateful if you are
    willing to share with me.
    Please let me know, if you have different ideas. I
    request you all to participate and throw your ideas
    and suggestions.
    Srikanthgenerally, wheather or not you are using log4j or anything else, when designing exception handling mechnism, you need to decide on where or by whom an exception will be handled, and if the exception needs to be displyed, and how it is displayed.

  • SharePoint hosted app part and SPHostUrl + SPAppWebUrl

    Hi,
    I have sharepoint hosted app that gets hostweburl and appweburl with the next lines 
    function getUrl() {
    hostweburl = getQueryStringParameter("SPHostUrl");
    appweburl = getQueryStringParameter("SPAppWebUrl");
    hostweburl = decodeURIComponent(hostweburl);
    appweburl = decodeURIComponent(appweburl);
    var scriptbase = hostweburl + "/_layouts/15/";
    $.getScript(scriptbase + "SP.Runtime.js",
    function () {
    $.getScript(scriptbase + "SP.js",
    function () { $.getScript(scriptbase + "SP.RequestExecutor.js", execOperation); }
    function execOperation() {
    context = new SP.ClientContext(appweburl);
    appContextSite = new SP.AppContextSite(context, hostweburl);
    And this works fine. But when I'm creating app part those hostweburl and appweburl fields are undefined. So I cant get the context and everything is broken. Is this done in some other way in app parts? 

    Like this in the ClientWebPart   
    <Content
          Type="html"
          Src="~appWebUrl/Pages/Welcome.aspx?{StandardTokens}&amp;ShowImage=_ShowImage_" />
    The {StandardTokens} contains all the queryString parameters you need.

  • How to get inputted value in a RTE field on custom page and submit by REST call in 'Sharepoint hosted app'.

    Hi I am facing the three questions below.
    1. How to use default RTE in custom page in Sharepoint hosted app.
     I saw the article of Rich text Editor (ribbon based) in a webpart in SharePoint 2013 and tried it. But it did not work well. I guess it needs code-behind setting, however sharepoint hosted app does not support code-behind.
    Does anybody know how to do this?
    2. In above case, I placed the below code on custom page and tried to get the field's value when submit button was clicked.
    <SharePoint:InputFormTextBox ID="rftDefaultValue"
    RichText="true"
    RichTextMode="FullHtml" runat="server"
    TextMode="MultiLine" Rows="5">
    </SharePoint:InputFormTextBox>
    In debugger, the returned value was 'undefined'.
    var note = $('#hogehoge').val();
    Is it possible to get the RTE value? If yes, please let me know how to do this.
    3. I need to submit the RTE value using REST call.
    In this
    article in MSDN, the item creation sample treats single line text field. Does anybody know the sample for RTE?

    Hi,
    According to your description, you might want to use Rich Text Editor control in your SharePoint hosted app.
    First of all, I would suggest you post one question in one thread to make it easier to be discussed, which would also help you get a quick solution.
    Though we can add this control into a SharePoint hosted app, however, as we can’t add code behind for it, plus with the potential compatibility issues in different
    browsers, I would suggest you use other JavaScript Rich Text Editor plugins instead.
    Two JavaScript Rich Text Editor plugins for your reference:
    http://quilljs.com/
    http://nicedit.com/
    If you want to submit the value of Rich Text Editor control to a SharePoint list using REST call, since the content in the Multiple Line of Text column is wrapped
    with nested HTML tags, the similar requirement would also be applied to the content to be submitted.
    Here is a code snippet about how to update a Multiple Line of Text column for your reference:
    updateListItem(_spPageContextInfo.webAbsoluteUrl, "List018", 1);
    function updateListItem(siteUrl, listName, itemId)
    var itemType = GetItemTypeForListName(listName);
    var item = {
    "__metadata": { "type": itemType },
    "MultiTextEnhanced": "<div><a href='http://bing.com/'>Bing</a><br></p></div>",
    "Title": "123"
    $.ajax({
    url: siteUrl + "/_api/web/lists/getbytitle('" + listName + "')/items(" + itemId + ")",
    method: "GET",
    headers: { "Accept": "application/json; odata=verbose" },
    success: function (data) {
    console.log(data);
    $.ajax({
    url: data.d.__metadata.uri,
    type: "POST",
    contentType: "application/json;odata=verbose",
    data: JSON.stringify(item),
    headers: {
    "Accept": "application/json;odata=verbose",
    "X-RequestDigest": $("#__REQUESTDIGEST").val(),
    "X-HTTP-Method": "MERGE",
    "If-Match": data.d.__metadata.etag
    success: function (data) {
    console.log(data);
    error: function (data) {
    console.log(data);
    error: function (data) {
    console.log(data);
    // Getting the item type for the list
    function GetItemTypeForListName(name)
    return"SP.Data." + name.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + name.slice(1) + "ListItem";

  • Unable to add aspx file to document library using REST and JSOM in SharePoint Hosted App

    Hi,
    I am unable to add an aspx file to document library.  I was actually trying to create a WIKI page and upload to Pages library but that wasn't working so I tried simple document library.  It keeps failing with Access Denied error.  I have checked
    the blocked types and aspx is not included.  I can upload it directly from the browser so that shouldn't be the case.  I have read that it can be achieved with CSOM but I need this to work with a SharePoint Hosted App.  Here is my JSOM:
    factory = new SP.ProxyWebRequestExecutorFactory(appweburl);
        context.set_webRequestExecutorFactory(factory);
        appContextSite = new SP.AppContextSite(context, hostweburl);
        oWeb = appContextSite.get_web();
        oList = oWeb.get_lists().getByTitle('Documents');
        fileCreateInfo = new SP.FileCreationInformation();
        fileCreateInfo.set_url("mywiki.aspx");
        fileCreateInfo.set_content(new SP.Base64EncodedByteArray());
        fileContent = "<%@ Page Inherits=\"Microsoft.SharePoint.Publishing.TemplateRedirectionPage,Microsoft.SharePoint.Publishing,Version=15.0.0.0,Culture=neutral,PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c\" %> <%@ Reference VirtualPath=\"~TemplatePageUrl\"
    %> <%@ Reference VirtualPath=\"~masterurl/custom.master\" %>";
        for (var i = 0; i < fileContent.length; i++) {
            fileCreateInfo.get_content().append(fileContent.charCodeAt(i));
        newFile = oList.get_rootFolder().get_files().add(fileCreateInfo);
        context.load(newFile);
        context.executeQueryAsync(function () {
            alert('yo');
        }, function (sender, args) {
            alert(args.get_message() + '\n' + args.get_stackTrace());
    If I change the file extension to "txt", it works.  Same with REST implementation, it works with "txt" but fails with "aspx".  Maybe what I am trying to do will not work using JSOM or REST.  Any suggestions?  Your
    help is always appreciated.

    Your code works fine in both my on-premises and SharePoint Online. I have given the app full control, so I suspect this is a permissions issue. I would check your permissions on your appmanifest. Must be something to do with publishing permissions. Try
    giving full control and work the permissions down.

  • OnPremise: Sharepoint Hosted App gives 401 unauthorized error while accessing UserProfile Rest Service

    Hi All,
    I have SharePoint hosted app deployed on On-Premise using(F5) which reads User Profile data consumes WCF(Hosted on same server) through REST API to insert data in to SQL DB(Different server).
    SharePoint hosted app was working as expected and suddenly it started asking for credential and not login(any user) to the application landing page.
    Checked SharePoint Logs, IIS Logs and Windows log but did not get any clue.
    WCF is accessible, User Profile access is also happening but not sure what changes done on server or infra level which causing this issue.
    I have an On-Premise Environment for SharePoint 2013. where we have created SharePoint hosted app which calls "http:///_api/SP.UserProfiles.PeopleManager/GetMyProperties" to get current user's data. but this gives me 401 unauthorized error.
    Notes:
    I had given read permission to user profile and full control to sitecollection in appmanifest. If I run this app on Office 365 developer site it works fine, but on premise environment it give 401 error.
    On premise environment when I deploy this app 3 times it prompt for  credential and finally gives the following error
    Error message after login 3 times:
    {"error":{"code":"-2147024891, System.UnauthorizedAccessException","message":{"lang":"en-US","value":"Access

  • Issue with Workflow in a SharePoint-hosted App Application

    Hi,
    I have created a Sharepoint-hosted app which has a list workflow in it. After I deploy it to the sharepoint server,  I can not find any workflow under the associated list.
    However, I did have target list associated with workflow in workflow project property.  
    (My app and worflow is developed in VS 2012)
    I have searched the forum and found some similar question. However, all of them don't have useful answers.....
    Can anyone give me some help~?

    Hi Baron123,
    I can reproduce your scenario, that create an app with list, and add a workflow associates with it, the workflow is not working, that seems doesn’t associates successfully.
    Before I can tell why this happens, I found a helpful blog about keeping the list definitions and workflow definitions separate, use Handle APP installed event receiver to wire up a workflow to lists in app web or host web.
    As it is not a good solution to deploy the list and workflow in the same app solution, because that if you redeploy the app the date will be lost, the list will be new created, so I would suggest you to reference the blog, check whether this can meet your
    requirement.

  • How to open List when Page loads in SharePoint Hosted App?

    I  want to create an app same like InstantPracticeManager by InstantQuick.
    Now I want to know that in a SharePoint Hosted App How can I show the Whole List in a page. 
    Here I have added one image:
    Here there is one list and there are 4 views of that list.
    Now the App will be like when I load the page It will show like the image above. Now how can we show the list like this in sharepoint hosted app?
    I want the same scenario which is shown in the following blogs:
    http://sp2013.blogspot.in/2012/08/use-list-view-in-sharepoint-2013-apps.html
    and
    http://www.sharepointnutsandbolts.com/2013/08/working-with-web-parts-within.html
    where they add a list to an app
    Can any one suggest me the idea? I am bit confused.
    thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you want to show the different list view in a page in SharePoint Hosted App.
    We can use jQuery and cross-domain library to achieve it.

    I'm developing a Sharepoint 2013 App that is set to be Sharepoint Hosted.  I have a section within the app that I'd like to be Configuration-related, so I would like to only allow certain users or roles to be able to access this content or even see
    that it exists (i.e. an Admin button, if you will).  What is the best practice for accomplishing this in Sharepoint 2013 Apps?  Thusfar, I've been doing everything using jQuery and the REST api and I'm hoping there's a standard within this that I
    should be using.
    Thanks in advance to anyone who can weigh in here.
    Mike

    Hi,
    According to
    this documentation, “You must configure a new name in Domain Name Services (DNS) to host the apps. To help improve security, the domain name should not be a subdomain
    of the domain that hosts the SharePoint sites. For example, if the SharePoint sites are at Contoso.com, consider ContosoApps.com instead of App.Contoso.com as the domain name”.
    More information:

    For production hosting scenarios, you would still have to create a DNS routing strategy within your intranet and optionally configure your firewall.
    The link below will show how to create and configure a production environment for apps for SharePoint:

  • Permissions required to deploy an "SharePoint hosted App" using VS 2013

    Hello,
    I'm trying to deploy a SharePoint Hosted App to an OnPrem SP2013 server.
    When i hit F5 (from VS 2013) i get the below error:
    "Error occurred in deployment step 'Uninstall app for SharePoint': The local SharePoint server is not available. Check that the server is running and connected to the SharePoint farm."
    I'm added to the Farm Administrators group, site collection admin and to the admin group of the box. But i do not have any db_Owner permissions the the config / content database.
    Do I need DB Access to deploy the apps? Please advice. 
    Thanks,
    Keerth

    Yes, you need to have db_owner permissions for the account which you are using to deploy the apps.

  • Can't add images to announcements in SharePoint-hosted app in Office 365

    I tried something very simple:
    Create a new SharePoint-hosted app
    Add a new list to the app, based on the Announcements template
    Deploy the app to my Dev site on Office 365
    When I now add a new item (aka a new announcement) and try to add an image to the Body field, I encounter two errors (depending on whether I try to add an image from my Computer or from SharePoint)
    Adding from my computer gives me an unexpected error:
    Adding from SharePoint shows me a structure of all the apps in my hostweb, but no way to upload an image either to the hostweb or the appweb:
    Is it not possible to add images to a Rich Text field in a list in an app?

    Hi Rene,
    For inserting any image from you computer to you App web, you need to create a separate picture library in your app web manually i.e. in your SharePoint hosted app add a new list item, under list settings window choose "create a list instance
    base on existing list template" and in the drop down select
    picture library. Now deploy the app and try again.
    Generally when we insert any image from our computer to a SharePoint rich text field, the image gets upload in one of the document libraries, but this option is not available in the newly created app web, as it doesn't contains any separate library..
    For you next error, make sure that in the app manifest you are providing
    read access on the web, this will resolve you second problem.
    Hope it helps you.....
