25 min screencast on Extending SharePoint 2010 document ID provider

fix

Thursday, July 29th, 2010

In my last article on document ID we looked at how SharePoint 2010 document center allows you to add new documents to the site and then after they are assigned unique ID – be able to find them by that ID. In past versions the problem was that you have no control on what the resulting ID will end up being.

In SharePoint 2010 – there is no visual way for you to decide what is your ID going to be – however this short screencast talk about how you can implement such a capability by extending document id provider.

First part of the video Michal talks about the concept of document ID and how they can be used. The second part I show Visual Studio code sample as well as a way to deploy the custom provider.

Enjoy!
