SharePoint: How to create a folder in a document library please using web services


I need to create a simple folder in a document library in SharePoint, but I can't seem to find a scrap of documentation on the subject.

The dws webservice seems to be used to create physical folders in a workspace, I need a way to create a folder in a document library.

Not sure what to do , please help


Solution

  • I found this method to work :

        HttpWebRequest request = (System.Net.HttpWebRequest)HttpWebRequest.Create("http://mySite/MyList/MyfolderIwantedtocreate");
        request.Credentials = CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;
        request.Method = "MKCOL";
        HttpWebResponse response = (System.Net.HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse();
        response.Close();
