  • You can use Content Editor or Script Editor web part on your site, put Html and JSOM (Java Script Object Model) code and that's it. You can perform any action supported by JSOM APIs

How to execute JSOM code in SharePoint?

  • Note: This is just a sample, you can go ahead with your implementation.
  • Open your Site. Create a webpart page.
  • Put a Content Editor Web part and a Script Editor Web part on it.
  • Webpart page content editor and scipt editor
  • I have added below Html in Content Editor webpart. You can replace MainFunction with your actual method name.

    <button onclick="MainFunction();" type="button">Click me​</button>

  • And below references in Script Editor Webpart. You can keep jQuery reference as per your need. ScriptFile.js is a JavaScript file where you can keep below function i.e. your actual logic.

    <script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-2.2.4.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

    <script type="text/javascript" src="/_layouts/15/sp.runtime.js"></script>

    <script type="text/javascript" src="/_layouts/15/sp.js"></script>

    <script src="https://MyServer/sites/SiteCollection/style library/js/ScriptFile.js"></script>
