Hi all.

 

I'm having some trouble reading the Feature Types in the Microsoft SharePoint List reader. I've uploaded an XML file for the Web Connection and successfully tested it. When attempting to read the Feature Types it throws the error in the attached image. I have permissions to access the site and I can open the same URL to the SharePoint site when it throws the error. What have I missed?

 

It's my first time working with SharePoint lists in FME so any information is appreciated.

 

Thanks,

Hi @Michael Drover​, there is a chance that the url you've entered is a level too deep. Try editing the URL to go up to .../IDDHUB/_api/web/ or just .../IDDHUB

Let me know how this works for you

Thanks @jennaatsafe​ . I've tried going up to that level but I'm still getting the same error. I've even gone up to the root level with the same problem. I'm meeting with our IT folks this morning. A colleague in my team is having the same problems. I'll post up the solution once I have an answer.

Thanks,

Michael

Hi again @jennaatsafe​ . Our IT chap took a look at it this morning and made some changes to the Client ID that now gives me access to the SharePoint contents. I'm now on my way!

 

Thanks,

Michael
