Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.SharePoint.Client, Version=15.0.0.0

Which version of SharePoint runtime do you use?

• O365?

SPMeta2 API

Latest 1.2.1840.0152

I have error message 'Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.SharePoint.Client, Version=15.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.'

My version of 'Microsoft.SharePoint.Client' is 16.1.8613.1200. I see dependencies

Hey @IlyeniaMaksim, thanks for raising this.

From what can be seen, we try to setup provision agains O365. Which NuGet package did you use? In this case, did you try SPMeta2.CSOM.Standard-v16 NuGet package?

It is a bit confusing, but for O365 the following package should be used:

https://www.nuget.org/packages/SPMeta2.CSOM.Standard-v16/

v16 stands not for SharePoint 2016, it stands for v16 assemblies which was the case for O365 before SP2016 arrival. Now it's a super bit confusing and we will be changing name convention for NuGet packages.

Anyway, check your packages, give it a go and let us know what's happening.
