class Identity_v1

Maturity: 22

Identity is a client value class representing a Microsoft SharePoint Comments identity entity, inheriting from ClientValue base class.

File:

Complexity:

Purpose

This class serves as a data model for SharePoint Comments identity objects in the Office365 REST API client library. It provides a typed representation of identity entities used in SharePoint commenting functionality, enabling proper serialization/deserialization when communicating with SharePoint REST endpoints. The class primarily defines the entity type name used for API communication.

Source Code

class Identity(ClientValue):
    @property
    def entity_type_name(self):
        return "Microsoft.SharePoint.Comments.Client.Identity"

Parameters

Name Type Default Kind
bases ClientValue -

Parameter Details

__init__: Inherits constructor from ClientValue base class. The specific parameters depend on the ClientValue parent class implementation, but typically accepts property values to initialize the identity object.

Return Value

Instantiation returns an Identity object that represents a SharePoint Comments identity. The entity_type_name property returns the string 'Microsoft.SharePoint.Comments.Client.Identity' which is used for type identification in SharePoint API requests and responses.

Class Interface

Methods

@property entity_type_name(self) -> str property

Purpose: Returns the fully qualified entity type name used by SharePoint REST API for identity objects in the comments namespace

Returns: String value 'Microsoft.SharePoint.Comments.Client.Identity' representing the entity type identifier

Attributes

Name Type Description Scope
entity_type_name str Read-only property that returns the SharePoint entity type name for identity objects in the comments client namespace instance

Dependencies

  • office365

Required Imports

from office365.runtime.client_value import ClientValue

Usage Example

from office365.runtime.client_value import ClientValue
from office365.sharepoint.comments.client.identity import Identity

# Instantiate an Identity object
identity = Identity()

# Access the entity type name (used internally by the API client)
entity_type = identity.entity_type_name
print(entity_type)  # Output: Microsoft.SharePoint.Comments.Client.Identity

# Typically used as part of SharePoint comment operations
# The Identity object would be populated with user/entity data
# and used in comment creation or retrieval operations

Best Practices

  • This class is primarily used internally by the Office365 SharePoint client library and should not typically be instantiated directly by end users
  • The entity_type_name property is used for proper serialization when communicating with SharePoint REST APIs
  • When working with SharePoint comments, this Identity class will be automatically instantiated and populated by the library
  • Inherits all functionality from ClientValue base class, including property management and serialization capabilities
  • Do not override the entity_type_name property as it must match the exact SharePoint API entity type
