As the name of the question states, I'm working with my company on a project in UiPath that is responsible for scraping a slurry of excel files from a SharePoint server. Unfortunately a decent portion of it is proprietary so I don't know how much of the actual code I can justifiably put here.
I have inside of UiPath (which is essentially a shell for vb.net and C# specifically tailored for automation) functionality to input a website url into the file explorer and have it navigate to the OneDrive folder for that SharePoint site.
This was working as expected until yesterday in the morning when it decided to brick itself and instead pull up the SharePoint site on the web browser.
Is there any way to ensure or otherwise understand why it won't open the folder path? I had it working before and I don't know why it doesn't work anymore.
Regards,
Jadda

This kind of issue may related to your IE security setting, try to add the related sharepoint site in trust site and try again:
Close your browser (if you don't and you have your SharePoint site up you'll get a bunch of script errors because of the change to access
levels).
Go to your Control Panel
Open Internet Properties
Select the Security tab.
Select Trusted Sites
Click Sites, and add the URL for your SharePoint site.
More details please refer this similar issue: "Some files can harm your computer" dialog when I open a file from the document library
If the warning dialog is disappear, but when you open file still download. Then that behavior maybe defined by your browser. Try some other browser such as IE/Chrome/FireFox. Double check the integration/link of your browser and Word,Excel.
i want to host a vb project from a sharepoint folder instead of having it locally installed.
I am still new at this, but I only need to host the files in the same folder on sharepoint right? And then whoever can just click the .exe file, correct?
Sorry if this is a dumb question!
Thanks in advance
As already mentioned in the comment SharePoint isn't meant to store or even display applications (.exe). What started as a security measure is now part of the philosophy of MS SharePoint. Here's a list of all filetypes SP13 will block by default.
Back to your question. There is a trick how you still can upload an .exe to SharePoint:
Store the application in a folder
Zip the folder
Upload the zipped folder to a document library
Display the library on the desired site
For the future..
As there is a "Silverlight Webpart" - develop silverlight application if you know from the beginning that you want to display them on SharePoint.
Another trick: Publish your application on a host server. Then use the "Site Viewer WebPart" and point it to your application
Last one, although I wouldn't suggest it.. You can develop a .wpf-application and simply upload it as the file-type isn't blocked. But to embed the resources is just a pain in the ass..
There are for sure many other ways to do this.. Those are just the most practical ones I know if you already developed the application. The best solution is of course to create your own WebPart..
I have an Access web database (the out-of-the-box Project one) and plan to move to another Sharepoint site (a test server). I have done lots of googling and nothing comes up. Any pointers will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
After some trials and errors, I figured out how to do that. First open the Access web db in Access client. Then go to Publish & Save, where you should see an option Save As Local Database. Then open the local database, again go to Publish & Save, you can choose to Publish to Access Services. A pane will appear to let you enter the URL of Sharepoint server and site name. If you have customizations or lots of lookups, there's a good possibility it will not publish. If that's the case, you just need to fix all the errors reported.
I was able to move my Access 2016 app to a new Sharepoint Site by saving it as a .app and uploading it to the new site.
I found this link to Microsoft's site helpful: Create an Access app package
I just want to integrate the google docs api to my project to open uploaded documents! I dont want Google Drive, the files are already uploaded on my server. I don't want to edit them or change anything, so it should be READONLY... I spent hours on https://developers.google.com/drive/quickstart-cs, I tried a couple of things but I couldn't find what I want!
for the pdf files, I used HTML5 to open them and it worked perfectly, but I couldn't find a way to open World documents with HTML5 object tag... Any idea how to do it? Thank you

I'm trying to create an Applescript script which essentially downloads files from Safari. However, the files are not available for download via the web page, so I usually open up the Web Inspector and then go to Resources and then in a folder called Other, download the file.
I've been searching the web for a method to do this via Applescript, but to no avail. My question is therefore: How can I access the Web Inspector > Resrouces > Other files in my current Safari window? I know that it is possible to bring up the Web Inspect using ⌥⌘I, and then you can change pane inside of the Inspector using ⌘]. But I can't get focus on the list of Resources Files, as shown below:
Is it possible to access this .mp3 file inside of the Other folder without using shortcut commands? And if not/if so, how can I access the Other folder inside of this window pane?
Thanks for your help in advance.
Is it possible that you can access the .mp3 file some other way? Rather than using the Web Inspector, perhaps you can find the link to the .mp3 file within the page source code, and then download it.
If you want to access the "Other" folder, then you will have to copy the web address you need it for, reset safari, go to the web page via the html bar and then open up the web inspector via alt>cmd>I and it should be there.Not sure what Apple Script has to do with anything (But I have never used it :P)
Hope this helps
