Upload zip file to azure blob storage

    CloudStorageAccount storageAccount =   CloudStorageAccount.Parse("ConnectionString");
                // Create the blob client.
                CloudBlobClient blobClient = storageAccount.CreateCloudBlobClient();

                // Retrieve reference to a previously created container.
                CloudBlobContainer container = blobClient.GetContainerReference("Container Name");

                FileInfo zipFile = new FileInfo(@"C:\Documents\myfiles.zip");
                // Retrieve reference to a blob named "myblob".

                CloudBlockBlob blockBlob = container.GetBlockBlobReference(zipFile.Name);
                // Upload the zip and store it in the blob
                using (FileStream fs = zipFile.OpenRead())
                    blockBlob.UploadFromStream(fs);

Check if the folder or file exists in Sharepoint C# CSOM

                                  var url = "/sites/sitecol/DocLib/FolderName;
                                  try
                                {
                                    var file = ctx.Web.GetFileByServerRelativeUrl(url);
                                    ctx.Load(file);
                                    ctx.ExecuteQuery();
                                 }
                                catch (ServerException ex) {

                                       if (ex.ServerErrorTypeName == "System.IO.FileNotFoundException") {
                                                                      }
                                           }

Error: Could not create SSL/TLS Secure channel

Solution include


ServicePointManager.SecurityProtocol = SecurityProtocolType.Ssl3 | SecurityProtocolType.Tls | SecurityProtocolType.Tls11 | SecurityProtocolType.Tls12;


We have to make sure that the server and the client have common protocol support.

Create your first app free in cloud Office 365 SharePoint 2013

Microsoft has provided an online free developer environment for creating Apps in SharePoint 2013.

In order to create an app below are the keys things we need to keep in mind

1) The site should be created using Developer site template.

2) When the developer site is created we would need to browse to SharePoint Store to add the NAPA tool as an app.
