Where’s the place where Outlook, Lync, Internet Explorer and more store user credentials? It’s the Windows Credential Manager – accessible from the Windows Control Panel, this system provides a secure persistent store for username + passwords. I wanted a way to securely stash the username and password so that the user wouldn’t have to input the password every time. Any good App should be easy to use and minimize interaction required – to that end, I wasn’t quite happy with the “stickiness” of the login on the SharePoint Client Browser project. So we now we have a desktop platform to build custom functionality against. It also includes tooling to be able to execute PowerShell against the remote SharePoint instance. It includes the DLL’s which take care of the bulk of operations for communicating with the remote SharePoint, be it on-prem or Office 365. In a nutshell, it’s a treeview inside of a split panel, that enumerates pretty much all the elements that constitute SharePoint at the site collection level.
I found a great set of building blocks to model off of with the awesome SharePoint Client Browser for SharePoint 20 code base. I was recently tooling up to build a WinForm’s application that uploads documents from the end users desktop to their Office 365 SharePoint team site.
