SPWebConfigModification
• Manage entries to web.config across multiple
servers in the farm
• Good for:
– Connection Strings / appSettings
• Useless for:
– Things that require specific order, zone-targeted

PS SharePoSH:\>
SPWebConfigModification
• Path – XPath expression where to find the
section you’re modifying
– configuration/appSettings
– configuration/System.Workflow.ComponentModel.WorkflowCompiler/authori
zedTypes
• Probably not…
– configuration/system.web/membership/providers
– configuration/SharePoint/SafeControls

PS SharePoSH:\>
SPWebConfigModification
• Name – Name of the attribute or section
you’re working with
• Owner – Allows you to track ownership of
modifications

PS SharePoSH:\>
SPWebConfigModification
• Type
EnsureChildNode
EnsureAttribute
EnsureSection
Specifies that the web.config modification must ensure the
existence of a child node of the node to which the XPath
expression points. Value = 0.
Specifies that the web.config modification must ensure that
there is a value for a particular attribute. Value = 1.
Ensures a singleton node. This node is only written once, even
if multiple entities register multiple instances of
EnsureSection to ensure the existence of a section. Value = 2.

• Configured as zones
• Useful for multiple authentication providers /
extranet scenarios

bindings in IIS – extend your site

Alternate Access Mappings
• SPWebApplication.AlternateUrls
• New-SPWebApplicationExtension
