UploadStreamAsync Method

Summary

Uploads the data in a stream to a SharePoint server folder asynchronously.

Syntax

C++

public void UploadStreamAsync( 
   Stream sourceStream, 
   Uri siteUri, 
   string destinationPath, 
   object userState 
)

  
Public Sub UploadStreamAsync( _ 
   ByVal sourceStream As Stream, _ 
   ByVal siteUri As Uri, _ 
   ByVal destinationPath As String, _ 
   ByVal userState As Object _ 
)

public: 
void UploadStreamAsync(  
   Stream^ sourceStream, 
   Uri^ siteUri, 
   String^ destinationPath, 
   Object^ userState 
)

Parameters

sourceStream
The stream containing the item data to upload. This value cannot be null (Nothing in VB).

siteUri
Full URL to the destination SharePoint site. This could be http://MySite or http://MySiteCollection/MySite. This value cannot be null (Nothing in VB).

destinationPath
Destination path (folder and file name) of the item to be created in the SharePoint server. See the remarks section for more information. This value cannot be null (Nothing in VB).

userState
The optional user-supplied state object that is used to identify the task that raised the UploadCompleted event.

Remarks

This method will return control immediately to your program and the UploadCompleted will occur when the upload operation is completed (successfully or if an error occurred).

This method will upload the content of sourceStream to SharePoint server. Note that the stream must stay alive will UploadCompleted occur. The location and name of the destination item in the server is determined as follows:

DestinationFileFullUrl = siteUri + destinationPath

For example, assume the SharePoint server contains a folder with the following name:

http://site/Shared Documents/

And you want the uploaded item with the name File.ext into this folder. You can perform this using this code:

Uri siteUri = new Uri(@"http://site"); 
string destinationPath = @"Shared Documents/File.ext"; 
sharePointClientObject.UploadFile(sourceFileName, siteUri, destinationPath);

You can use the .NET System.IO.Path and System.UriBuilder classes to build the path and URI of the items. No that destinationPath is allowed to contain slashes (/) as in HTTP URI's or forward slashes (\) as in Windows paths or a mix of both.

To upload a stream synchronously, use UploadStream.

To upload a disk file to the server, use UploadFile or UploadFileAsync.

To down an item from SharePoint, use DownloadFile, DownloadFileAsync, GetDownloadStream or GetDownloadStreamAsync.

Example

This example will create a stream of an image file and uploads it to SharePoint asynchronously.
