Unable to properly consume SharePoint data

Time:09-26

I've been unsuccessfully trying to make my application consume SharePoint data.

I followed these steps from c-sharpcorner.com enter image description here

AllSites.Read doesnt have the status granted, but since it says "Admin consent required: No", I didnt bother, not sure if that's causing the issue.

So, the issue: I've been trying to retrieve a specific list from the SharePoint. With the same user I used to register the required application on Azure AD, I can access this list directly through the web browser, I can even see a XML file with all lists of this subsite if I access enter image description here

When I try to access a specific list by name or id I receive an 'Access is denied' exception.

What did I do wrong? am I missing another permission here?

CodePudding user response:

To access specific list you need AllSites.Manage delegated API permission.

Try to also load site and web before loading list if it works.

var mySite = context.Site;
context.Load(mySite);
var web = context.Web;
context.Load(web);
var lists = context.Web.Lists;
context.Load(lists);
context.ExecuteQuery();

        

CodePudding user response:

Base on my research and testing, if you want to retrieve a specific list, you can use the following code (Note: You need to have AllSites.Read permissions):

List targetList = clientContext.Web.Lists.GetByTitle("List Name");

In addition, if you want to update or delete a specific list, AllSites.FullControl permission is required.
