SharePoint 2003 Alerts

[jiv...@gmail.com]

Hi all,

I have created a website that communicates with SharePoint 2003 trough
web services.
Now the problem is when I want to add an alert to a list or a file
from sharepoint.
I've tried using Alerts.asmx services but there is only for listing
and deleting and not for adding new alert.
My website could be on different servers so I couldn't use the SPAlert
class to this as well.
Could some one give me some ideas to solve this problem?

Everything works fine for reading and uploading a file to and from
Sharepoint unsing WSS.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks,

MJ

Hi,

AFAIK there is no web service available that will allow you to add or
edit alerts so I think you have two options.

1) Start hacking around in the SharePoint database - never the best
idea
2) Write your own web service that uses the SharePoint API and then
call that web service from your app.

Cheers....Ryan

Hi Ryan,

And thanks for the response. I guess I'll have to write it my self.
Do you have any examples on how to write the web services for SP?
Thanks,
MJ
