4 APPS

5 In its most basic form, an app for SharePoint is a web application that is registered with SharePoint using an app manifest.

6 apps architecture STS (ACS) SharePoint Server 5 10 Browser App.com

7 apps are not executed in SharePoint App pool are in most of the cases not even running on SP Server can have full trust, with user s approval (OAuth) can access SharePoint Data can access outer world non-sharepoint Data can use any external resources can be executed in it s own chrome, as app parts, or as SharePoint extensions

8 why apps Isolated (safe!) Multi-tenant Multiple development possibilities (even non-ms stack) Easier to deploy (no SharePointisms by deployment) Easier to maintain (lifecycle versioning, upgrades) Manageable (SharePoint Marketplace, Corporate Catalog) Cloud ready!

9 Apps Examples

10 sp app design - a choice of three approaches Cloud-based Apps Get remote events from SharePoint Use CSOM/REST + OAuth to work with SP Provider-Hosted App Bring your own server hosting infrastructure Developers will need to isolate tenants Azure Auto-Provisioned App Windows Azure + SQL Azure provisioned invisibly as apps are installed SharePoint Web SharePoint Web Your Hosted Site Azure (from WebDeploy, DacPac) SharePoint-hosted App Provision an isolated sub web on a parent web Reuse web elements (lists, files, out-of-box web parts) No server code allowed; use client JavaScript for logic, UX Parent Web App Web (from WSP)

11

12 Types of Apps for SharePoint Shape Description Example Immersive App (Full Page) App that implements a new scenario for customers Resource Tracking, Budgeting App Part Provides new parts you can add to your sites Weather, Team Mascot, News Extension App (Custom Action) Add new actions for documents and items Display Document Visualization, Print to Print Service Vendor

13 framework & tools.net Framework 4.0 (or 4.5) JavaScript Visual Studio only 2012 need to create an App Domain additional templates Napa Office 365 Dev Tools client side tools cloud based can export to VS Solution upgrades - do I have to?

14 Visual Studio New Development site template is the only way you can deploy Apps from VS to SP directly Must configure Server to develop against it Can create 2010 objects Still has the old SharePoint Solution project templates New list designer item template

15

16

17 app security App Permissions: Set during Development Granted during Installation Trusted by Users App Policies: User only (only care about who) App only (only care about what) User and App (care about both)

18 app management Service & Service Application in Central Admin License Management Catalog Management App Monitoring Site Template for Managing

19 app development Local development Has to be on Windows Server 2008 R2 (or later) Memory reqs have gone up 12 GB RAM seems workable... But TechNet recommends 24 GB Extra configuration needed for app development Visual Studio 2012 Remote development Sign up for Office 365 Developer Site Possible to use NAPA app for building apps

20 sharepoint csom and rest api Apps connect to SharePoint using SharePoint 2013 Client Side Object Model (CSOM) SharePoint 2013 REST API Javascript cross-domain library (SP.RequestExecutor.js) Main investments in 2013 Client.svc is extended with REST capabilities Easier for javascript and non.net code Implemented in accordance with odata protocol Programming style is largely unchanged New APIs for SharePoint Server functionality User Profiles, Search, Taxonomy, Feeds,...

21 feature availability matrix

22 rest urls in sharepoint 2013 _api folder! vs Example REST URLs targeting SharePoint sites _api/web/lists _api/web/lists/list1 /_api/web/lists/getbytitle('consultants')/items

23 remote event receivers App Server Push Notifications

24 is an app answer for everything?

25 things to keep in mind Plan for RAM. Target = 16Gb for combined dev environment. Apps require configuration work to setup. Developer Knowledge: Will need to understand DNS and App Domains or work with someone who does. If you haven t learned claims, do so. Deprecating.asmx web services

26 when should you choose a sp solution Access to full SP object model Administrative functions or extensions Require Scope above web Custom Site Definitions, Themes, Delegate controls, action groups, User Controls OAuth is not an option

27 New List designer
