Question

Share Point

Integrations

Updated October 7, 2019

asked on September 12, 2013

Dears,

We have a project where the migration form sharepoint 2010 to Laserfiche is a requirments.

We need to migrate the documents with their content type and the versions of each document to Laserfiche.

I am talking about 5000 documents.

Laserfiche Record center integration can migrate a document to Laserfiche but it is not designed for such job like migrating thousands of documents?

We know how to use the SDK to do such migration, but our main concern is to get out the documents from sharepoint first. Do you have any Idea? any experience how to access Sharepoint documents and their indexes and versions?

Thanks,

Dory Mina

Hi Dory,

You're correct, the Laserfiche SharePoint integration doesn't really have "migrate all documents" feature, so going through one at a time and exporting them would be time consuming. As you note, doing things programatically with the SDK will require you to know a bit about SharePoint architecture. Because we don't produce SharePoint, we're really not the best resource for this information. Microsoft will probably be more help with that, but you may want to start with this website: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms473633(v=office.14).aspx

Based on some very quick research, it looks like you're going to be interested in the SPFile class, which represents documents in SharePoint. Looks like the class contains methods and properties to do just about everything you'd want to do. Hope this helps!

Would you be willing to share the module you created? We are also looking at moving files from SharePoint into Laserfiche and need to capture indexes as well.

We are looking to perform a similar process. Are there any additional tools available from Laserfiche or SharePoint 2013 or Laserfiche Marketplace integrations?

Have you been able to migrate from documents from SharePoint to Laserfiche?

Depending on the access to Sharepoint, you can export the database to an Access Database file, then run VB to cycle through attachments and export. It's not the most elegant solution, but it worked for me.
