Karl Wright commented on CONNECTORS-497:
----------------------------------------

I had a look at the SharePointRepository.processDocuments() code.  At this time 
it presumes that the path that follows the library name is a URL that will 
allow direct access to the file contents.  For a list this is obviously not 
going to be the case - but the document identifier will have to have a list 
item row identifier in its place, which the processDocuments() method can 
recognize as a list item row identifier, so it knows not to look for a file at 
that URL.

Can you describe what the list item row identifiers look like?  For a list 
item, please give me some examples of what the FileRef field contains.

> Lists are similar to libraries, but without documents.  We still should be 
> able to index empty documents with metadata, however, or select an attribute 
> to treat as the document.
