Hi everyone,

In line with recent Office 365 API (for business) update I have been wondering if DNN community has had any thoughts about integrating with Microsoft services.

For a few days now I have been playing with this new API and doing quite a bit of reading while trying to integrate SharePoint service into one of our modules. So far with not much of success. While getting access at files seems handy enough getting at authentication token is a bit more difficult.

Has anyone else looked into something similar?

I'd like to read your thoughts on this.

Thanks Cathal for a prompt reply.

I am aware of SharePoint folder provider. If I am not mistaken this is what people used to extend/link their DNN installation to a single OneDrive account. Like storage expansion.

But I need something else. I need to provide individual users the ability to access their own OneDrive accounts and push/pull files across.

Some time mid last year my colleague was in touch with developer in Evotiva. I am nearly 100% sure that Evotiva's solution didn't work with Office365 business accounts which was part of the reason we didn't go with their product at the time.

Anyway I've been working with this Office365 API for about a week now. It's driving me up the wall with their Azure AD authentication/authorisation. But I think that has more to do with my lack of understanding how to convert MVC sample project into Web Forms sample project (let alone into DNN module). I feel like I am missing something simple.

But there is another problem I came across when I tried what I had working in DNN. because by default all modules inherit from PortalModuleBase class as soon as I try to execute something asynchronously I get this:

Error: OneDrive is currently unavailable. DotNetNuke.Services.Exceptions.ModuleLoadException: This operation requires the page to be asynchronous (the Async attribute must be set to true). ---> System.InvalidOperationException: This operation requires the page to be asynchronous (the Async attribute must be set to true). at System.Web.UI.Page.RegisterAsyncTask(PageAsyncTask task) at Christoc.Modules.OneDrive.View.Page_Load(Object sender, EventArgs e) in c:\hosting\devsite1.me\DesktopModules\LinkWise\OneDrive\View.ascx.cs:line 32 --- End of inner exception stack trace ---

Anyway, its a work in progress at the moment.
