Stored Procedure-Specific Information

The CreateSchema stored procedure generates an RSD schema file for a SharePoint table. You can output the schema to a file using the FileName parameter, or retrieve the schema content as base64-encoded data using the FileData output.

To generate a schema file and save it to disk, enter:

To retrieve the schema content as base64-encoded data, omit the FileName parameter:

EXEC CreateSchema TableName = 'MyList';
