Sample code to add remote event receiver for host web library.

private void AppInstalledMethod(SPRemoteEventProperties _properties) { using (ClientContext clientContext = TokenHelper.CreateAppEventClientContext(_properties, false)) { if (clientContext != null) { Web web = clientContext.Web; var list = web.Lists.GetByTitle("MyDoc3"); clientContext.Load(web); clientContext.Load(list); clientContext.Load(list.EventReceivers); clientContext.ExecuteQuery(); EventReceiverDefinitionCreationInformation receiver = new EventReceiverDefinitionCreationInformation(); receiver.EventType = EventReceiverType.ItemAdding; OperationContext op = OperationContext.Current; Message msg = op.RequestContext.RequestMessage; receiver.ReceiverUrl = msg.Headers.To.ToString(); receiver.ReceiverName = "ItemAddingEvent"; receiver.Synchronization = EventReceiverSynchronization.Synchronous; receiver.SequenceNumber = 5000; list.EventReceivers.Add(receiver); EventReceiverDefinitionCreationInformation receiverUpdate = new EventReceiverDefinitionCreationInformation(); receiverUpdate.EventType = EventReceiverType.ItemUpdating; //op = OperationContext.Current; //msg = op.RequestContext.RequestMessage; receiverUpdate.ReceiverUrl = msg.Headers.To.ToString(); receiverUpdate.ReceiverName = "ItemUpdatingEvent"; receiverUpdate.Synchronization = EventReceiverSynchronization.Synchronous; receiverUpdate.SequenceNumber = 5000; list.EventReceivers.Add(receiverUpdate); clientContext.ExecuteQuery(); } } } public SPRemoteEventResult ProcessEvent(SPRemoteEventProperties properties) { SPRemoteEventResult result = new SPRemoteEventResult(); switch (properties.EventType) { case SPRemoteEventType.AppInstalled: AppInstalledMethod(properties); break; case SPRemoteEventType.AppUpgraded: AppUpgradedMethod(properties); break; case SPRemoteEventType.ItemAdding: ItemAddingMethod(properties); break; case SPRemoteEventType.ItemUpdating: ItemUpdatingMethod(properties); break; case SPRemoteEventType.WebAdding: // you can implement webaddding event break; case SPRemoteEventType.WebDeleting: //you can implemet web deleting event if needed. default: break; } return result; } private void ItemUpdatingMethod(SPRemoteEventProperties _properties) { using (ClientContext clientContext = TokenHelper.CreateRemoteEventReceiverClientContext(_properties)) { if (clientContext != null) { var afterproperties = _properties.ItemEventProperties.AfterProperties; } } }
