Microsoft SharePoint Workspace 2010 and Microsoft Office Groove 2007 are collaboration applications that enable teams to work together from virtually any location, primarily through the use of shared spaces. For common operations such as authenticating users, SharePoint Workspace 2010 and Office Groove 2007 use the protocols that are identified and described in section 2.2.1, except the data access protocols that are described in section 2.2.1.4 and the information rights management protocols that are described in section 2.2.1.5. To support application-specific operations, SharePoint Workspace 2010 and Office Groove 2007 use additional protocols.
To communicate with other protocol clients and protocol servers in the Groove and SharePoint Workspace system, SharePoint Workspace 2010 and Office Groove 2007 use the protocols and structures that are described in the Groove Protocols Overview ([MS-GRVPROT]).
When setting up connections to and synchronizing data with lists (1) and document libraries on protocol servers that are running Windows SharePoint Services, Office Groove 2007, and SharePoint Workspace 2010 use the following protocols:
To detect protocol server configurations and capabilities, the FrontPage Server Extensions Remote Protocol, as described in [MS-FPSE].
To determine which sites and lists (1) exist on a protocol server, the Webs Web Service Protocol, as described in [MS-WEBSS].
To obtain information about a site and its users, the Site Data Web Service Protocol, as described in [MS-SITEDATS], and the UserGroup Web Service Protocol, as described in [MS-UGS].
To obtain details about list views for each list (1) or document library, the Views Web Service Protocol, as described in [MS-VIEWSS].
To collect information about the forms that are associated with each list (1), the Forms Service Protocol, as described in [MS-FORMS].
To obtain copies of data and files in lists (1) and document libraries, the Lists Web Service Protocol, as described in [MS-LISTSWS].
To synchronize changes between copies of data and files on the protocol client and protocol server, Office Groove 2007 and SharePoint Workspace 2010 use several protocols:
To synchronize data for list (1) items, the Lists Web Service Protocol, as described in [MS-LISTSWS].
To synchronize files in document libraries, the SharePoint Files Tool feature in SharePoint Workspace 2010, and Office Groove 2007 use WebDAV, as described in [RFC2518].
To synchronize file attachments for list (1) items and documents and document templates in document libraries, SharePoint Workspace 2010 use the File Synchronization via SOAP over HTTP Protocol, as described in [MS-FSSHTTP], if the protocol server supports that protocol. If the protocol server does not support the File Synchronization via SOAP over HTTP Protocol, files will not be able to be synchronized with SharePoint Workspace 2010.
