CSOM Update without triggering workflow - SharePoint Online

Hi there,

SystemUpdate is presented in CSOM/JSOM too, actually. It was added in SPO sometime before and seems like it works very close to SSOM's method:

• No editor and modified date information is updated,
• No version is created,
• But workflow with an on edit trigger, unfortunately, starts,
• Not sure about RERs, likely they are fired as well.

Here is a sample in JavaScript (should be executed on classic display or edit form):

var clientContext = new SP.ClientContext.get_current(); 
var oList = clientContext.get_web().get_lists().getById(_spPageContextInfo.pageListId);
var oListItem = oList.getItemById(GetUrlKeyValue("ID"));
oListItem.set_item('Title', 'New title');
oListItem.systemUpdate();
clientContext.executeQueryAsync(
    function() {
        console.log('Item has been updated');
    },
    function(sender, args) {
        console.log('Error: ' + args.get_message() + ' ' + args.get_stackTrace());
    }
);

Didn't check if the CSOM (C#) behavior is the same.

Anyway, maybe it will be helpful.
