Required Imports

from office365.sharepoint.sharing.web_sharing_manager import WebSharingManager

Usage Example

from office365.sharepoint.client_context import ClientContext
from office365.sharepoint.sharing.web_sharing_manager import WebSharingManager

# Setup SharePoint context
site_url = 'https://yourtenant.sharepoint.com/sites/yoursite'
ctx = ClientContext(site_url).with_credentials(user_credentials)

# Get the web sharing manager for the current web
web = ctx.web
sharing_manager = web.get_property('SharingManager', WebSharingManager())
ctx.load(sharing_manager)
ctx.execute_query()

# The entity_type_name property identifies the SharePoint entity type
print(sharing_manager.entity_type_name)  # Output: SP.Sharing.WebSharingManager

Best Practices

  • This class is typically not instantiated directly by end users but obtained through SharePoint web objects or context operations
  • Always ensure the ClientContext is properly authenticated before accessing sharing manager functionality
  • Use ctx.load() and ctx.execute_query() pattern to retrieve entity properties from SharePoint
  • This is a placeholder class that may be extended with additional methods for specific sharing operations
  • The entity_type_name property is used internally by the office365 library for REST API endpoint resolution
  • Consider this class as part of the larger Entity framework - it inherits all Entity base functionality for property loading, updating, and querying
