Hi All,

Is there any way to read multiple GDBs saved on the company Sharepoint? Does the Sharepoint need to be publicly accessible? I get an error when try to use the URL link and load the GDB, 

 

Also I would like to know a workaround to read individual GDBs, Any Ideas? The GDBs are saved in individual folders so need to iterate thought these, example of the folder structure below:

 

Example of the individual content folder below:

How I do this:

  • SharePointOnlineConnector to list the directory.
  • SharePointOnlineConnector to download the gdb.
  • FeatureReader to read the gdb.

I usually use the TempPathnameCreator to write the downloads to a temp file which gets cleaned up automatically, but I’m not sure that works well with .gdb’s as a file geodatabase is essentially a folder with an extension…

Also see the article Getting Started with Microsoft SharePoint.
