Get All Items in SharePoint using REST API

The example in this topic show how to use REST API to Get All Items in SharePoint
  • REST-API is based on OData (Open Data) Protocol and hence it doesn't require any dll or JS library to run the commands on the SharePoint objects.
  • REST-API calls require proper end-point URL and proper Header implementation in your REST call.

How to use SharePoint REST API?

  • Note: This is just a sample, you can go ahead with your implementation.
  • You can also use this method in your SPFx Component.
  • 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. ScriptFile.js is a JavaScript file where you can keep below function i.e. your actual logic.

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

  • Once you are done with setting your page, click on the button and your method should get executed.

  • function GetAllListItems() {
  •     $.ajax
  •         ({
  •             // _spPageContextInfo.webAbsoluteUrl - will give absolute URL of the site where you are running the code.
  •             // You can replace this with other site URL where you want to apply the function
  •             // Optionally you can append "$top=10" to restrict the results to 'n' number of rows only.
  •             // e.g. - url: _spPageContextInfo.webAbsoluteUrl + "/_api/web/lists/getByTitle('List Name')/items$top=10",
  •             // "$select" can be used, if only a defined colmns need to be returned in result set
  •             url: _spPageContextInfo.webAbsoluteUrl + "/_api/web/lists/getByTitle('List Name')/items?$select=Title,LinkFilename",
  •             type: "GET",
  •             headers:
  •         {
  •             // Accept header: Specifies the format for response data from the server.
  •             "Accept": "application/json;odata=verbose"
  •         },
  •             success: function (data, status, xhr) {
  •                 var dataresults = data.d.results;
  •                 for (var i = 0; i < dataresults.length; i++) {
  •                     alert(dataresults[i]["LinkFilename"]);
  •                 }
  •             },
  •             error: function (xhr, status, error) {
  •                 console.log("Failed");
  •             }
  •         });
  • }
