Sharepoint REST API - Bug in Sharepoint

Hello,
I found bug in sharepoint, where I can submit this bug or get answer from Microsoft about bug?
Description:
Open web appilication properties (Authentication Providers -> Default -> Anonymous Access -> check check box Enable anonymous access)
Create any new site collection(http://myWebpplication/sites/NewSiteCollection) in this web application (don't change any settings in new site collection)
Open fiddler and try to create following Get request without any additional headers.
http://myWebpplication/sites/NewSiteCollection/_api/Web
Now you get following error:

Unfortunately, this needs to be reported through Product Support (PSS)... there is no guarantee that it'll get addressed, or when that might happen.

Sharepoint break REST API connection (anonymous), possible bug in sharepoint

Hello, I have following problem when I test Rest API using fiddler :
As i see, server just close connection and does not return any status code at all. I expect to see at least 401 or 500 exception. Is that SharePoint
bug, or this is expected behavior of the SharePoint? (according HTTP protocol & according SharePoint Rest API )
Web application settings and site collection settings:

Hi,
Can you access the site from browser?
If you can, would you mind providing more details about how you execute your request? Anonymous or with credential?
How about setting the “Anonymous Access” to “Anonymous users can access Entire Web site”? It would allow anonymous users access the site.
Feel free to reply if the issue still exists.

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:

SharePoint 2010 Rest API: How to add attachment to a list item via ListData.svc

Hi
I have set up a project using the REST API in c# Visual Studio 2010.
I have added a service reference to the URL //site/_vti_bin/listdata.svc/
I can query the list and get back data, but I can't retrieve the attachments.
I can write data to the list, but I can't add attachments.
Are there any examples of how to add or retrieve attachments using the REST API services.
Thanks
Mike

Hi,
If you want to work with list attachments using REST API, here are some links will show how to do this using Javascript:

Document Set Creation in document library using REST API in Sharepoint 2013

Hi,
I want to create the document set using REST API call. Currently i am able to create the folder and able to upload the files using REST API's in the document library. Is there any way we can pass the contentype name or Id and create the document set using
REST API call. We need to create the document set along with metadata and upload the files inside the document set.
I need to create the document set along with meta data column values using REST API. Please let me know how we can achieve this through REST API.
Thank you,
Mylsamy

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to create document set along with managed metadata fields.
The REST API does not currently support working with Managed Metadata or Taxonomy fields.
As a workaround, we can use the JavaScript Client Object Model.
Create document set using JavaScript Client Object Model.

// use the request executor (cross domain library) to perform the upload
var reqExecutor = new SP.RequestExecutor(appWebUrl);
reqExecutor.executeAsync({

How to write FQL in querytext field in SharePoint 2013 Search REST API?

I am having double quote symbol issue in my search app, same as http://www.silver-it.com/node/127 says.
To avoid this issue, I am trying to understand: is it possible to do search request in FQL to the 2013 Search REST web service?
I know that we can use KQL in querytext, like
http://sp2013/sites/search/_api/search/query?querytext='Title:"123#123"'&enablefql=false&rowlimit=100&selectproperties='Title'
But is it possible to write it in FQL? I found that there is a enableFQL property we can set in REST API. What's the function of it?
http://sp2013/sites/search/_api/search/query?querytext='test'&enablefql=true&rowlimit=100&selectproperties='Title'
http://sp2013/sites/search/_api/search/query?querytext='string("test case",mode="simpleall")'&enablefql=true&rowlimit=100&selectproperties='Title'
Right now, the two above requests just give me this error.
HTTP/1.1 500 Internal Server Error
{"error":{"code":"-1, Microsoft.Office.Server.Search.REST.SearchServiceException","message":{"lang":"en-US","value":"We didn't understand your search terms. Make sure they're using proper

Hi,
Per my understanding, you might want to add an user to a SharePoint group in host web from a SharePoint Hosted App using REST API.
Here is a working demo for your reference:
var hostweburl;
var appweburl;
$(document).ready(function () {
//Get the URI decoded URLs.
hostweburl = decodeURIComponent(getQueryStringParameter("SPHostUrl"));
appweburl = decodeURIComponent(getQueryStringParameter("SPAppWebUrl"));
// Resources are in URLs in the form:
// web_url/_layouts/15/resource
var scriptbase = hostweburl + "/_layouts/15/";
// SP.RequestExecutor.js to make cross-domain requests
$.getScript(scriptbase + "SP.RequestExecutor.js", loadPage);
// Utilities
// Retrieve a query string value.
// For production purposes you may want to use a library to handle the query string.
function getQueryStringParameter(paramToRetrieve)
var params = document.URL.split("?")[1].split("&");
for (var i = 0; i < params.length; i = i + 1)
var singleParam = params[i].split("=");
if (singleParam[0] == paramToRetrieve) return singleParam[1];
function addUsersInGroup() {
var executor;
// Initialize the RequestExecutor with the app web URL.
executor = new SP.RequestExecutor(appweburl);
executor.executeAsync({
url: appweburl + "/_api/SP.AppContextSite(@target)/web/sitegroups(8)/users?@target='" + hostweburl + "'",
method: "POST",
contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
dataType: 'json',
body: "{'__metadata': { 'type': 'SP.User' },'LoginName':'i:0#.f|membership|[email protected]'}",
headers: {
"Accept": "application/json; odata=verbose",
"content-type": "application/json;odata=verbose",
"X-RequestDigest":$("#__REQUESTDIGEST").val()
success: addUsersInGroupSuccessHandler,
error: addUsersInGroupErrorHandler
function addUsersInGroupSuccessHandler(data)
console.log(data);
var jsonObject = JSON.parse(data.body);
console.log(jsonObject);
function addUsersInGroupErrorHandler(data)
console.log(data);
var jsonObject = JSON.parse(data.body);
console.log(jsonObject);

SharePoint REST API and Asset Library Problem

Hi dear friends,
Im having an issue about posting videos via rest to asset library and i couldnt solve yet.
My main task is to migrate a content(according to the scenario its video) from one farm to another.For that i've planned to use Rest API using server side(c#).While
any other kind of document types(images,texts) are migrated successfully,videos are giving me hard time.
I think theres something special going on while creating videos in an asset library,right?
When i post video as byte array it creates video as .mp4 file but the content type displayed as "Image".I followed this guide : https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/dn292553.aspx and
couldnt find a way.
Can someone give me a sample code or help me solve this issue? Looking forward help from SharePointers who worked with rest api :)
Thanks

You can look at this link to help you set the metadata using REST.

So in the app you are testing, are you using the FQDN or the NetBIOS name? Bad practice but could you test with both (hard code the absolute URL for testing purposes) then retest your app?
If you are making a web part based on the new app model this will be an "app part" and probably have the same issues you are experiencing. If this is for something internal rather than a product you are developing to resell then the script editor /
content editor web part approach could work for you.

How to access a sharepoint site via the REST API in Python?

I have the following site:
http://win-5a8pp4v402g/sharepoint_test/site_1/
When I access this from the browser, it prompts me for the username and password and then works fine. However I am trying to do the same using the REST API in Python. I am using the requests library, and this is what I have done:
import requests
from requests.auth import HTTPBasicAuth
USERNAME = "Administrator"
PASSWORD = "password"
response = requests.get("http://win-5a8pp4v402g/", auth=HTTPBasicAuth(USERNAME, PASSWORD))
print response.status_code
However I get a 401. I dont understand. What am I missing?

Try adding the auhenticatig domain to the username. That may help.

How to retrieve the users that are following a document using JSOM / REST APIs in SharePoint 2013

Hi everyone,
Does anyone know how to use JSOM / REST APIs to retrieve the users that are following a specific document in SharePoint 2013?
Thanks in advance,
Nam

Hi Nam,
Please use the sample code to get the followers for the document. Courtesy: Mokhtar
Bepari
using Microsoft.SharePoint.Client;
using Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.Social;
ClientContext clientContext = new ClientContext("http://URL");
SocialFollowingManager followingManager = new SocialFollowingManager(clientContext);
SocialActorInfo actorInfo = new SocialActorInfo();
actorInfo.ContentUri = "<documenturl>"; //set the document url.
actorInfo.ActorType = SocialActorType.Document;
//By using the GetFollowed method you can get the people who the current user is following.
ClientResult < SocialActor[] > followedResult = followingManager.GetFollowed(SocialActorTypes.Users);
//By using the GetFollowers() method you can get the people who are following the current user.
ClientResult < SocialActor[] > followersResult = followingManager.GetFollowers();
clientContext.ExecuteQuery();
Once you get the resultset you can iterate like below:
foreach(SocialActor actor in followedResult)
string name = actor.Name;
string imageURL = actor.ImageUri;
