SharePoint List Updater

Updates rows in a SharePoint list based on their ID.

Notes:

  • Updating more than a few hundred items can take long time.
  • When updating a list, the name of the input table columns are matched to the display names of the respective columns in the SharePoint list. In this process read-only columns are ignored. If multiple list columns have the same display name, the first will be chosen. The node will fail if there is no list column matching a specific table column or if a required list column is not present in the input table.
    This node will not perform any type checking when appending values. Unlike the specific error messages when writing a new row, the SharePoint API only returns a generic 400 Invalid Request code if the types in the existing list do not match the types this node tries to write. Please check the input types if you receive such an error.
  • Any list columns which are not present in the table will be left as they are. A missing value will clear the respective cell.

KNIME column type support

Fully supported KNIME column types:

Partially supported KNIME columns types:

  • Long columns map to Number . The node will fail for more than 15 significant digits (digits which remain after leading and trailing zeros are removed, i.e. in "401220500000" the digits "4012205" are significant and in "0.0004050114" the digits "4050114" are significant).
  • Double columns map to Number . The node will fail for infinity, NaN and values outside of [1.79E308,-1.79E308], as well as for numbers with more than 15 significant digits.
  • Local Date and Local Date Time columns map to Date and Time , which stores a UTC timestamp with second-precision. Hence, values from KNIME are mapped to an instant in UTC and truncated to second-precision. For example, 2022-02-02 08:00:00 is stored as 2022-02-02 08:00:00 UTC. The node will fail for values before 1900-01-01 00:00:00 UTC and after 8900-12-31 23:59:59 UTC.
  • Zoned Date Time columns map to Date and Time , which stores a UTC timestamp with second-precision. Hence, Zoned Date Time values are converted to the UTC timezone and truncated to second-precision. For example, 2022-02-02 08:00:00 CET is stored as 2022-02-02 07:00:00 UTC. The node will fail for values before 1900-01-01 00:00:00 UTC and after 8900-12-31 23:59:59 UTC.

Unsupported KNIME column types:
All column types that do not belong to the above categories are unsupported and the node cannot be executed, since there is no corresponding type in SharePoint.

The node stores a unique technical ID which is used to find the list.
