websvcSites Namespace

The Sites Web Service provides methods and properties that support export and import operations using SOAP calls against Windows SharePoint Services Web sites (SPWeb instances) to allow migrating site content from one location to another

The Sites Web service provides one of three ways to migrate content from one Windows SharePoint Services Web site to another. Additional methods use the following:

  • The Windows SharePoint Services utility, Stsadm.exe.

  • The Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 object model exposed in the Microsoft.SharePoint.Deployment namespace.

For more information about these other methods, see Content Migration Overview.
