Public method GetLimitedWebPartManager Specifies the control set used to access, modify, or add Web Parts associated with this Web Part Page and view.
Public method GetPreAuthorizedAccessUrl

Protected method InitNonPropertyFieldFromJson Initializes a non-property field of the client object based on JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) data from the server. This member is reserved for internal use and is not intended to be used directly from your code. (Inherited from ClientObject.)
Protected method InitOnePropertyFromJson (Overrides ClientObject.InitOnePropertyFromJson(String, JsonReader).)
Public method IsObjectPropertyInstantiated Indicates whether the specified property of the client object is instantiated. (Inherited from ClientObject.)
Public method IsPropertyAvailable Returns a Boolean value that indicates whether the specified scalar property has been retrieved or set. (Inherited from ClientObject.)
Protected method LoadExpandoFields Initializes the extended properties associated with the client object when overridden in a derived class. (Inherited from ClientObject.)
Public method MoveTo Moves the file to the specified destination URL.
Public method MoveToUsingPath
Public methodStatic member OpenBinaryDirect Downloads the specified file from a SharePoint site without requiring an ExecuteQuery() method call.

Public method Recycle Moves the file to the Recycle Bin and returns the identifier of the new Recycle Bin item.
Public method RecycleWithETag
Public method RefreshLoad Reloads all scalar properties associated with the client object when overridden in a derived class. (Inherited from ClientObject.)
Protected method RemoveFromParentCollection Removes the current client object from the parent client object collection. (Inherited from ClientObject.)
Public method Retrieve() Retrieves all scalar properties associated with the object. This member is reserved for internal use and is not intended to be used directly from your code. (Inherited from ClientObject.)
Public method Retrieve([]) Retrieves the specified scalar properties associated with the object. This member is reserved for internal use and is not intended to be used directly from your code. (Inherited from ClientObject.)
Public method SaveBinary Saves the specified file into a document library.
Public methodStatic member SaveBinaryDirect(ClientContext, String, Stream, Boolean) Uploads the specified file to a SharePoint site without requiring an ExecuteQuery() method call.
Public methodStatic member SaveBinaryDirect(ClientContext, String, Stream, String) Uploads the specified file to a SharePoint site with the specified Etag without requiring an ExecuteQuery() method call.
Public method StartUpload Starts a new chunk upload session and uploads the first fragment. The current file content is not changed when this method completes. The method is idempotent (and therefore does not change the result) as long as you use the same values for uploadId and stream.The upload session ends either when you use the CancelUpload(Guid) method or when you successfully complete the upload session by passing the rest of the file contents through the ContinueUpload(Guid, Int64, Stream) and FinishUpload(Guid, Int64, Stream) methods.For example, you can pass a 35 MB file by dividing it into three 10 MB streams and one 5 MB stream and uploading them this way (using the resulting offset values of 10, 20 and 30 MB):StartUpload(GUID, stream1)
ContinueUpload(GUID, 10 MB, stream2)
ContinueUpload(GUID, 20 MB, stream3)
FinishUpload(GUID, 30 MB, stream4)The StartUpload(Guid, Stream) and ContinueUpload(Guid, Int64, Stream) methods return the size of the running total of uploaded data in bytes, so you can pass those return values to subsequent uses of ContinueUpload(Guid, Int64, Stream) and FinishUpload(Guid, Int64, Stream)
Public method ToString (Inherited from Object.)
Public method UndoCheckOut Reverts an existing checkout for the file.
Public method UnPublish Removes the file from content approval or unpublish a major version.
Public method Update
Protected method UpdateClientObjectPropertyType Updates the client object property's value to have correct type by using the type information returned from the server. (Inherited from ClientObject.)
