Property bags are read-only when using the REST API. If you want to update a property bag you will need to use the Client Object Model (CSOM) instead.

If you do a search for "sharepoint rest api property bags" you will see similar answers from StackOverflow and other forum sites.

Here is a JavaScript sample:

function setWebProperty() { var ctx = new SP.ClientContext.get_current(); var web = ctx.get_web(); this.properties = web.get_allProperties(); this.properties.set_item("myCustomProperty", "myCustomValue"); ctx.load(web); web.update(); ctx.executeQueryAsync(Function.createDelegate(this, getWebProperty), Function.createDelegate(this, failedGettingProperty)); } function getWebProperty() { alert(this.properties.get_item("myCustomProperty")); } function failedGettingProperty() { alert("failed"); }

Try using SharePoint REST API call like this:

$.ajax({ url: "http://<site url>/_api/web", type: "POST", data: "{ '__metadata': { 'type': 'SP.Web' }, 'Description': 'My new description'}", headers: { "X-RequestDigest": <form digest value>, "accept": "application/json;odata=verbose", "content-type": "application/json;odata=verbose", "content-length": <length of body data>, "X-HTTP-Method": "MERGE", "If-Match": "*" }, success: successHandler, error: errorHandler });

In this example I have updated description property of SharePoint online site.

  • This is not the property bag you are updating here, but the object itself. Commented Jun 26, 2024 at 7:18
