Are you curious about how to upload files to SharePoint using Python Script? In this article, you’ll find how Python can help you save time and effort. Keep reading so you can bid adieu to manual file uploading and bonjour to productivity 😊
Let’s dive in and get started!
Step 1. Install Office365-Rest-Python-Client
pip install Office365-REST-Python-Client
*pip or pip3 depending upon your system
Step 2. Import required libraries
from office365.runtime.auth.authentication_context import AuthenticationContext from office365.sharepoint.client_context import ClientContext
Step 3. Authentication
3.1 Create client context object
In simple words, client context is an object that contains information about SharePoint objects (sites, lists and items) and methods (create, read, update, delete). We need it, so we can retrieve files and send updates back. In this article ,we will create the context object using the client id and client secret.
site_url = 'https://{your-tenant-prefix}/sites/{your-folder-of-interest}' app_principal = { 'client_id': '{client_id}', 'client_secret': '{client_secret}', } context_auth = AuthenticationContext(url=site_url) context_auth.acquire_token_for_app(client_id=app_principal['client_id'], client_secret=app_principal['client_secret']) ctx = ClientContext(site_url, context_auth)
3.2 Retrieve the title of a SharePoint website to check if client context object is working as expected
web=ctx.web
ctx.load(web)
ctx.execute_query() print("Web site title: {0}".format(web.properties['Title']))
*Your client context object is ready to load file
Step 4. Load file to SharePoint site
4.1 Import os module
The OS module provides functions for interacting with the operating system
localpath = "{local path of the file you want to upload to SharePoint Site}/file_to_transfer.txt" remotepath = "/sites/{path_to_folder_of_your_interest}/"+"name_you_want_to_give_to_uploaded_file.xlsx"
*ensure you follow this syntax for remote path else code will fail
4.2 Open and read the content of local file in binary format (“rb”) and save the content in a variable
with open(localpath,"rb") as content_file: file_content = content_file.read()
4.3 Load the file_content from previous step to SharePoint site
dir, name = os.path.split(remotepath)
4.4 Upload the file to SharePoint site
file = ctx.web.get_folder_by_server_relative_url(dir).upload_file(name, file_content).execute_query()
