CSOM : Server Unauthorized Access Exception: Access Denied.
- Aug 18, 2017
My suggestion, you're using SharePoint On-Premises.
For On-Premises credentials should be defined in the following way:
using System.Net; using Microsoft.SharePoint.Client; using (ClientContext context = new ClientContext("http://sp-onprem/")) { context.Credentials = new NetworkCredential("user", "password", "domain"); // CSOM code }SharePoint Online requires the secure string as a password:
using (ClientContext context = new ClientContext("https://contoso.sharepoint.com/")) { string pwd = "password"; SecureString password = new SecureString(); foreach (char c in pwd.ToCharArray()) { password.AppendChar(c); } context.Credentials = new SharePointOnlineCredentials("user", password); // CSOM code }Also, I would recommend to figure out what auth scenario your instance is configured to support.
This is what i do before, but the error show (access denied). Actually this error is shown for the local user that don't have the authorization to access the sharepoint subsite.
Ok so you want to have elevated privileges?
That is not possible using Csom.

The only thing you could do is write full trust code which populates the list. or build a webservice which has the rights.
