Posted on by SD_Dev 160

Hi.

I am trying to create a sharePoint subfolder in sharepoint from the record created in CRM Online. At the moment, my code is able to create a document location in CRM but I am final aim to create a sharepoint subfolder inside the folder that is manually created from CRM.
Is there a specific method or code inorder to achieve this? I have followed sample code from http://develop1.net/public/post/SharePoint-Integration-Reloaded-e28093-Part-3.aspx which is very helpful but unable to crack the final goal that i am looking for. 

Someone with really good understanding of CRM Online and sharepoint Online integration would be of great help. Eagerly waiting for your reply.

Note: Using CRM and Sharepoint Online instead of on-premises products as they require specific dll's inorder for code to work. Dll's doesn't work for Online products.

Thanks,
SD_Dev

    Sounds like what you really need is details on how to create the folder in SharePoint through the API.  Have a look at https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/dn292553.aspx to get more details on that one.

    If you need something to trigger this you can create a Plugin on the creation of a Document Location.

    Good luck.

    Thanks Jason for your reply.

    But this source is not very helpful in terms of creating subfolder(s) for an already created folder in Sharepoint.

    Maybe there might be some other source that would be helpful? Please let me know.

    Thanks,

    You might look at the blog posts here: http://journeyintocrm.com under the SharePoint topic. He walks through using the REST API to perform operations like creating folders and it doesn't require the SharePoint .dlls so it works from CRM Online.

    In this post there is a link to some sample code: http://journeyintocrm.com/archives/280
