    Hello, How does the process of adding multiple list items work in sppp with sharepoint 2013? I get a batch error when adding multiple items using the official documentation

    @koltyakov
    SPPP is not related to the API. It's a project generator/starter and a set of project automation tasks.
    Regarding the API question, batch API was not supported in SP 2013. The way to go is Promise.all instead.

    Hello everyone. I'm trying the following example: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/getting-started-react-local-development-sharepoint-andrew-koltyakov/. It works fine with user credentials (SAML/ADFS). However, I'd like to use OnDemand authentication because we work in a multi-user environment with 2FA. When I try it out, Electron opens up fine, and I can log in with 2FA, but it just loads the SharePoint page. When I close the popup window I am not authenticated. Can you guys help me?

    When I close the Electron window I get this error ^

    Hi, could you tell which version of electron do you use?
    eralardz
    @eralardz
    Hello Sergei, thanks for your time. I used the last version of electron through npm: 7.1.3
    Sergei Sergeev
    @s-KaiNet
    just a side note: for sharepoint online with 2FA you can generate an app password and use it instead of a real one
    how add a new app passwod: https://support.office.com/en-us/article/create-an-app-password-for-office-365-3e7c860f-bda4-4441-a618-b53953ee1183 (To create another app password section)
    for electron... I haven't tested with the latest electron, sometimes they introduce breaking changes.. could you try installing electron 3.x locally, then speicfy electron explicitly via on-demand options - https://github.com/s-KaiNet/node-sp-auth/wiki/On-demand-authentication
    eralardz
    @eralardz
    App passwords are disabled on my tenant :-(
    Ok, I will try 3.x!
    eralardz
    @eralardz

    Looks like it's not supported by 3.x.x
    I'll try some other versions

    @s-KaiNet
    do you use windows auth?
    eralardz
    @eralardz
    I think so (I'm an absolute beginner)
    Sergei Sergeev
    @s-KaiNet
    in that case on-demand will not work
    eralardz
    @eralardz
    Oh ok, so I should use app passwords?
    Sergei Sergeev
    @s-KaiNet
    looks like it's the only way
    eralardz
    @eralardz
    Ok, thanks a lot! I will bug my admin to enable it
    Sergei Sergeev
    @s-KaiNet

    if it's windows auth, a browser should ask for creds using above window
    eralardz
    @eralardz
    Oh no, it doesn't use that window. It uses a SharePoint popup.
    Sergei Sergeev
    @s-KaiNet
    could you send a screenshot (delete all private data)?
    eralardz
    @eralardz
    ok, just a moment

    etc...
    Sergei Sergeev
    @s-KaiNet
    it definitely doesn't look like windows auth
    eralardz
    @eralardz
    after the password it asks for the 2fa sms code, and then I would expect the Electron window to close. But it stays open and it just loads the website.
    Sergei Sergeev
    @s-KaiNet
    you can try asking admins to enable app password, meanwhile I will test on-demand with the latest electron and 2fa, but I will be able to do that only by the end of the week
    eralardz
    @eralardz
    Thanks a lot! I will try to downgrade versions first. Do I create an issue on github for this?
    Sergei Sergeev
    @s-KaiNet
    yes, please, under https://github.com/s-KaiNet/node-sp-auth
    the last suggestion - try to install electron 3.x globally, then use on-demand without "electron" option
    eralardz
    @eralardz
    Ok. I will check. I am using sp-rest-proxy btw, but I guess that just uses node-sp-auth under the hood.
    Sergei Sergeev
    @s-KaiNet
    yep, exactly
    eralardz
    @eralardz

    How do i use on-demand without electron? Do i specify it manually?
    Sergei Sergeev
    @s-KaiNet
    ah, I forgot you use sp-rest-proxy, then you can't control these settings
    then just install electron 3.x globally and re-initilize sp-rest-proxy with on-demand option
    eralardz
    @eralardz
    I installed it globally, and the warning "Integrated windows authentication isn't supported" is gone, but it still just loads the website
    Sergei Sergeev
    @s-KaiNet
    ok, so it looks like it's an issue with electron and 2fa, I will check it
    eralardz
    @eralardz
    Thanks a lot!!
    Just one more question, I would try to make a really simple react webapp that reads and writes to SharePoint lists from node. I could't find any good examples tho, would you happen to know some?
    Sergei Sergeev
    @s-KaiNet
    if you don't need user context, then you can use add-in only authntication from nodejs and update SharePoint
    eralardz
    @eralardz
    I will check that out
    But I think i will need user context
    Sergei Sergeev
    @s-KaiNet
    in that case maybe for you it's better to use azure ad oauth authentication to establish a user context and get all the data from sharepoint, for example
    https://github.com/AzureADQuickStarts/WebApp-OpenIDConnect-NodeJS
    eralardz
    @eralardz
    Thanks, I will check it out
