Solution

  • Yes. SharePoint 2010 does not support REST API but you can use listdata.svc service.

    Refer below code. This should work for you:

    'https://abc.abcd.com/sites/RohitW/_vti_bin/Listdata.svc/DocLibTest2?$filter=endswith(Path, 'folder1')'

    Note: Here we are trying to get the files present inside the specific folder(i.e. folder1) of document library(i.e. DocLibTest2)

    1. DocLibTest2 is name of document library.

    2. folder1 is name of folder present inside DocLibTest2
