Upgrade Guide - 2.0 rev.140718 to 2.1 rev.150128

To upgrade the SharePoint Integration Framework from version 2.0 rev.140718 to SharePoint Connect version 2.1 rev.150128:

• Upgrade Sitecore to XP 8.0
• Install SharePoint Connect 2.1 upgrade package
• Move \App_Config\Include\sharepoint.config to \App_Config\Include\Sharepoint folder (this is necessary to make Sitecore patch item provider pipelines in right order)
• Make the following changes in the sharepoint.config: Remove the following lines:
  
  

  <itemmanager>
  
       	<providers>
  
      		<add>
  
      			<x:attribute name="type">Sitecore.Sharepoint.Data.Providers.ItemProvider, Sitecore.Sharepoint.Data.Providers</x:attribute>
  
      		</add>
  
      	</providers>
  
      </itemmanager>
      

• Add the following to the pipelines node:
  
  

   <group name="itemProvider" groupName="itemProvider">
  
      	<pipelines>
  
      		<getChildren>
  
      		<processor type="Sitecore.Sharepoint.Pipelines.GetChildren.GetChildren, Sitecore.Sharepoint.Data.Providers" x:after="processor[position()=last()]" />
  
      		</getChildren>
  
      		<getItem>
  
      			<processor type="Sitecore.Sharepoint.Pipelines.GetItem.GetItem, Sitecore.Sharepoint.Data.Providers" x:after="processor[position()=last()]" />
  
      		</getItem>
  
      	</pipelines>
  
      </group>
