simple
Purpose
This class serves as a manager for SharePoint microfeed operations, providing an interface to interact with SharePoint's microfeed service. It represents the server-side MicrofeedManager object and enables operations related to social feeds, activity streams, and user notifications within SharePoint. The class follows the SharePoint REST API entity pattern, allowing for CRUD operations and property access on microfeed resources.
Source Code
class MicrofeedManager(Entity):
def __init__(self, context):
super(MicrofeedManager, self).__init__(
context, ResourcePath("SP.Microfeed.MicrofeedManager")
)
Parameters
| Name | Type | Default | Kind |
|---|---|---|---|
bases |
Entity | - |
Parameter Details
context: A ClientContext or similar context object that provides the connection and authentication details for communicating with the SharePoint server. This context manages the HTTP requests, authentication tokens, and session state required for all SharePoint operations. It must be a valid, authenticated context before instantiating this class.
Return Value
Instantiation returns a MicrofeedManager object that represents the SharePoint microfeed manager entity. This object can be used to perform operations on microfeeds, though specific methods would be inherited from the Entity base class or added in the full implementation. The object maintains a connection to the SharePoint server through the provided context.

Methods
__init__(self, context) -> None
Purpose: Initializes a new MicrofeedManager instance with the provided SharePoint context
Parameters:
context: ClientContext object containing SharePoint connection and authentication details
Returns: None - constructor initializes the instance

Required Imports
from office365.runtime.paths.resource_path import ResourcePath
from office365.sharepoint.entity import Entity
Usage Example
from office365.sharepoint.client_context import ClientContext
from office365.sharepoint.microfeed.microfeed_manager import MicrofeedManager
# Setup SharePoint context
site_url = 'https://yourtenant.sharepoint.com/sites/yoursite'
username = 'user@yourtenant.onmicrosoft.com'
password = 'your_password'
ctx = ClientContext(site_url).with_credentials(username, password)
# Instantiate MicrofeedManager
microfeed_mgr = MicrofeedManager(ctx)
# Load and execute to retrieve microfeed data
ctx.load(microfeed_mgr)
ctx.execute_query()
# The manager is now ready for microfeed operations
Best Practices
- Always ensure the ClientContext is properly authenticated before instantiating MicrofeedManager
- Call ctx.load() and ctx.execute_query() to retrieve data from SharePoint after instantiation
- Handle authentication errors and network exceptions when working with SharePoint entities
- Reuse the same context object for multiple operations to maintain session state
- The class follows the Entity pattern, so inherited methods like load(), update(), and delete() may be available
- Check SharePoint permissions before attempting microfeed operations as they may require specific user rights
- This is a lightweight wrapper class; most functionality comes from the Entity base class
