SharePoint 365 Rest API: Add a link item in a document library
Hi I am looking into creating a new link item in a document library using rest api. I have looked around and can not find a solution as yet. Has anyone managed to achieve this? Many thank...
Hi iainmac,
Found a way to do that in REST.

Headers
{
"content-type": "text/plain",
"accept": "application/json"
}
Body (in plain text as is shown below)

URL=https://<tenant>.sharepoint.com/sites/<anysite>/linkToFile
