(Go) SharePoint -- Check In a File

In SharePoint, you can check out a file to make sure nobody can change it before you update it. After updating, you can check in the file. This example shows how to check in a SharePoint file.

Chilkat Go Downloads Go Package for Windows, MacOS, Linux, Alpine Linux, Solaris

    // This requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
    // See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

    http := chilkat.NewHttp()

    // If SharePoint Windows classic authentication is used, then set the 
    // Login, Password, LoginDomain, and NtlmAuth properties.
    http.SetLogin("SHAREPOINT_USERNAME")
    http.SetPassword("SHAREPOINT_PASSWORD")
    http.SetLoginDomain("SHAREPOINT_NTLM_DOMAIN")
    http.SetNtlmAuth(true)

    // The more common case is to use SharePoint Online authentication (via the SPOIDCRL cookie).
    // If so, do not set Login, Password, LoginDomain, and NtlmAuth, and instead
    // establish the cookie as shown at SharePoint Online Authentication

    // This example will check in the file named "penguins2.jpg" 
    // which is located in the "/Documents" folder.

    req := chilkat.NewHttpRequest()
    req.SetHttpVerb("POST")
    // Note that our path uses GetFileByServerRelativeUrl and not GetFolderByServerRelativeUrl
    // Also, if your Sharepoint site is within a site collection, the URL is formatted like this (where "teamA" is the name of the site)
    // /sites/teamA/_api/web/GetFileByServerRelativeUrl('/sites/teamA/Documents/penguins2.jpg')/CheckIn(comment='Comment',checkintype=0)
    req.SetPath("/_api/web/GetFileByServerRelativeUrl('/Documents/penguins2.jpg')/CheckIn(comment='Comment',checkintype=0)")

    // We need to add a form digest value in the X-RequestDigest header field.
    // See this example for details on
    // how to get (and cache) a form digest value
    req.AddHeader("X-RequestDigest","SHAREPOINT_FORM_DIGEST")

    // Send the POST using HTTPS (TLS). Port 443 is the default port for https.
    bUseTls := true
    resp := http.SynchronousRequest("SHAREPOINT_HTTPS_DOMAIN",443,bUseTls,req)
    if http.LastMethodSuccess() != true {
        fmt.Println(http.LastErrorText())
        http.DisposeHttp()
        req.DisposeHttpRequest()
        return
    }

    // The response body contains XML.
    xml := chilkat.NewXml()
    xml.LoadXml(resp.BodyStr())

    if resp.StatusCode() != 200 {
        fmt.Println("Response status code = ", resp.StatusCode())
        fmt.Println(*xml.GetXml())
        fmt.Println("Failed")
        resp.DisposeHttpResponse()
        http.DisposeHttp()
        req.DisposeHttpRequest()
        xml.DisposeXml()
        return
    }

    resp.DisposeHttpResponse()

    // Show the successful XML response.
    fmt.Println(*xml.GetXml())
    fmt.Println("Success.")

    // A successful XML response looks like this:
    // <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
    // <d:CheckIn xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/ado/2007/08/dataservices"
