How to retrieve a SharePoint list using rest

I’m using this so often these days and I keep forgetting the url to use, so I thought I’d put it here so I could find it.

http://sp2010a/teamsite/_vti_bin/listdata.svc

To retrieve information for a single list

http://sp2010a/teamsite/_vti_bin/listdata.svc/Contacts

Or perhaps just a single contact (in this case, the one with ID = 1)

http://sp2010a/teamsite/_vti_bin/listdata.svc/Contacts(1)

iisapp R.I.P

Out of habit I still type iisapp at a cmd prompt even though its gone in IIS7. I was going to add a batch file but that’s just grasping

How to get the Windows Service name from the Windows Service Description

Sometimes you need to stop and start a Windows Service from the Cmd line or from a batch file. To do this you need to know the Windows Service’s ‘KeyName’ rather than the display name of the service.

To get the KeyName run this command from the cmd line:

C:\sc.exe GetKeyName DisplayName

Example
C:\sc.exe GetKeyName “Windows Services Timer service”
will return Name = SPTimerV3

You can then use this name in your batch files i.e.

net stop “SPTimerV3”
net start “SPTimerV3”
