In this blog, I will to add a code snippet for updating an item in a SharePoint announcement list using Client Object Model.

 

The client object model must conclude with a call to ExecuteQuery() or ExecuteQueryAsync(ClientRequestSucceededEventHandler, ClientRequestFailedEventHandler).

 

Steps

1. Open Visual Studio in your system.
2. Select "Console Application" template and give it name as "Enablefolder".
3. Add a Microsoft.Client Assembly reference file in right side Reference tab in Visual Studio.
4. Replace Program.cs with the source code below.

Code snippet 

using System;
using Microsoft.SharePoint.Client;


namespace GowthamArticles
{
    class CreateListItem
    {
        static void Main()
        {

            ClientContext clientContext = new ClientContext("https://gowtham.sharepoint.com/tutorials");
            List oList = clientContext.Web.Lists.GetByTitle("Announcements");
            ListItem oListItem = oList.Items.GetById(7);
            oListItem["Title"] = "Custom Title updated Programmatically.";
            oListItem.Update();
            clientContext.ExecuteQuery();


        }
