Document Library Advance Settings (DefaultItemOpenInBrowser)

[ajcaterino]

I am refactoring some old .NET Framework code that is using CSOM. Below is the code.

public void UpdateViewGroupSettings(DocumentLibraryFormattingModel data)
{
    // Update Default View
    using (ClientContext ctx = new ClientContext(data.SiteUrl))
    {
        System.Net.ServicePointManager.SecurityProtocol = System.Net.SecurityProtocolType.Tls12;
        ctx.AuthenticationMode = ClientAuthenticationMode.Default;
        SecureString securePassword = new SecureString();
        foreach (char c in _authPass)
            securePassword.AppendChar(c);
        ctx.Credentials = new SharePointOnlineCredentials(_authUser, securePassword);
        var site = ctx.Site;
        var web = ctx.Web;
        var list = web.Lists.GetByTitle(data.ListName);
        var defaultView = list.DefaultView;
        ctx.Load(site);
        ctx.Load(web);
        ctx.Load(list);
        ctx.Load(defaultView);
        ctx.ExecuteQuery();

        var jsonFormatString = "{\"$schema\":\"https://developer.microsoft.com/json-schemas/sp/v2/row-formatting.schema.json\",\"commandBarProps\":{\"commands\":[{\"key\":\"upload\",\"position\":5},{\"key\":\"pinToQuickAccess\",\"position\":6,\"hide\":true},{\"key\":\"exportExcel\",\"position\":7},{\"key\":\"automate\",\"position\":9,\"hide\":true},{\"key\":\"integrate\",\"position\":10,\"hide\":true},{\"key\":\"sync\",\"hide\":true},{\"key\":\"addShortcut\",\"hide\":true},{\"key\":\"ZZZ Menu...\",\"position\":2},{\"key\":\"KSM Tools...\",\"position\":1,\"hide\":true}]},\"tileProps\":{\"$schema\":\"https://developer.microsoft.com/json-schemas/sp/v2/row-formatting.schema.json\",\"commandBarProps\":{\"commands\":[{\"key\":\"upload\",\"position\":5},{\"key\":\"pinToQuickAccess\",\"position\":6,\"hide\":true},{\"key\":\"exportExcel\",\"position\":7},{\"key\":\"automate\",\"position\":9,\"hide\":true},{\"key\":\"integrate\",\"position\":10,\"hide\":true},{\"key\":\"sync\",\"hide\":true},{\"key\":\"addShortcut\",\"hide\":true},{\"key\":\"ZZZ Menu...\",\"position\":2},{\"key\":\"ZZZ Tools...\",\"position\":1,\"hide\":true}]}}}";
        var menuFormatString = "[{\"templateId\":\"NewFolder\",\"title\":\"Folder\",\"visible\":true},{\"templateId\":\"NewDOC\",\"title\":\"Word document\",\"visible\":true},{\"templateId\":\"NewXSL\",\"title\":\"Excel workbook\",\"visible\":true},{\"templateId\":\"NewPPT\",\"title\":\"PowerPoint presentation\",\"visible\":false},{\"templateId\":\"NewONE\",\"title\":\"OneNote notebook\",\"visible\":false},{\"templateId\":\"NewXSLSurvey\",\"title\":\"Excel survey\",\"visible\":false},{\"templateId\":\"NewXSLForm\",\"title\":\"Forms for Excel\",\"visible\":false},{\"templateId\":\"NewVSDX\",\"title\":\"Visio drawing\",\"visible\":false},{\"templateId\":\"Link\",\"title\":\"Link\",\"visible\":false}," + dmsCt + "," + docCt + "]";
        defaultView.CustomFormatter = jsonFormatString;
        defaultView.NewDocumentTemplates = menuFormatString;
        list.DefaultItemOpenInBrowser = false;
        list.DefaultView.Update();
        list.Update();
        ctx.ExecuteQuery();
    }
}

I am trying to use PnP.Core 1.10.0, but I cannot find the property for "list.DefaultItemOpenInBrowser". Is there a way to set this for the document library using PnP.Core? Looking at the source code on GitHub, I can see that in the src\generated\SP\Internal\List.cs that the property exists. It also exists in src\generated\SP\Public\IList.cs. However, I cannot find it under the sdk folder. Any help would be appreciated.

@ajcaterino : thanks for raising this, I've just added the DefaultItemOpenInBrowser property, will be part of the next nightly build.

Thanks for looking into that and fixing it quickly.

Installed the nightly build version 1.10.50-nightly and tested successfully.
