BizTalk / SharePoint integration



BizTalk includes SharePoint adapter which can be used for sending and receiving data from/to SharePoint
You could see that that sending adapter even is limited with 16 fields.
But what to do if you want to send more then 16 fields, attach a file to Item, do manipulations with a List/Library etc.

I would like to recommend to use native web services from SharePoint

Use UpdateList to insert and update List Items
you can use GetListItems method to serach for Items in a List

for more methods and description check

for other SharePoint Services check

which you can use by calling from orchestrations

XML debatch in pipeline

Last month I had a post were described how to debatch XML message in orchestration using XPath. http://biztalk.kirakosyan.com/2010/02/debatching-records-from-wcf-sql-using.html How I wrote it is not the best solution , in case if you will have hundreds of records the debatching using XPath will consume too much memory and processor.
In this post I am going to show how to debatch using pipeline. The sample will fetch multiple records from MS SQL database and after debatching put them to folder.
How to create simple WCF-SQL ports and SQL polling you can read in my old post http://biztalk.kirakosyan.com/2010/02/how-to-pull-database-using-wcf-sql.html I will use the same procedure and table to generate Schemas and PortTypes
In generated schema change envelop type to yes


Next click on TypePolling which is the root for schema
In properties find Body XPath
and edit it as in picture is
Then change the last node to have Max Occurs = 1
Now we should remove hidden stones :-)
When you added adapter metadata f…
