How to use SSIS to extract permission assigned to each folder within a SharePoint List – Part 2 (of 5)
Basically, I create 2 tables: “SharePoint_FolderList” and “SharePoint_FolderPermissionList”.
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[SharePoint_FolderList](
[SP_FolderName] [nvarchar](100) NOT NULL,
[SP_FolderPath] [nvarchar](350) NOT NULL
)
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[SharePoint_FolderPermissionList](
[SP_FolderName] [nvarchar](100) NOT NULL,
[SP_FolderPath] [nvarchar](350) NOT NULL,
[SP_FolderPermission] [nvarchar](100) NOT NULL
)
There are a few steps in the SSIS package:
Steps 1 – Truncate the above2 tables
Steps 2 – Write the folder list to the staging table (SharePoint_FolderList)
(Thanks to Shantha Kumar’s Retrieve all folders with sub-folders from SharePoint List. I took his code to retrieve folder list.)
As I run the package on MOSS Server locally, I use SPWeb. (If you want to run the package remotely to the MOSS Server, you have to modify my code to use the SharePoint web services. Check “Retrieving folders from document library”: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/sharepointdevelopment/thread/16a2d993-2f5e-4242-8e5a-451a78c064a3). In the script component, add the reference to “Microsoft.SharePoint” and add the following line: using Microsoft.SharePoint;
