Hi Folks,
I need to get a list of files in a SP2010 and SP2013 document library using the REST API - this is occurring inside a timer service application so am using C#. As a constraint I need to use the internal names for the document libraries - primarily because users tend to change the display name and this is an automated service.
- When I make a call to _api/web/GetFolderByServerRealitveUrl('/Shared Documents')/Files I get a bunch of XML but how do I get just a list of filename+ext. I am using Xdocument (LINQ to XML). I need to retrieve the name property in the contents sub element for all files returned.
- Second question, how to I change this to use the internal name '/Document' instead of '/Shared Document', so that it copes with users changing the display name of document libraries.
Regards
Andy
