Rename a File in a SharePoint document library through object model

  • Artikel

Following code will do that functionality. Like how we are renaming a file through UI, we have to first check-out the file and after renaming the file we have to check-in it.

<code>

            SPSite oSite = new SPSite ("https://<sitename>/");

            SPWeb oWeb = oSite.OpenWeb();

            SPList oList = oWeb.Lists["Shared Documents"];

            SPListItem oListItem = oList.Items[0]; //taking the first list item

            oListItem.File.CheckOut();

            oListItem["Name"] = "xyz";

            oListItem.Update();

            oListItem.File.CheckIn("file name has been changed");

</code>

    TO rename a file using the Client Object Model: item.File.CheckOut(); item.File.MoveTo(fname2, MoveOperations.Overwrite);                         string comment = "Testing file rename"; item.File.CheckIn(comment, CheckinType.MinorCheckIn);
