Source - [Similar question][1] Since you can't get a list by URL so I would assume you can't get a document by url either, but you can try doing it this way tho, var fileItem = Web.GetFileByServerRelativeUrl("server/relative/url"); context.Load(fileItem); //you will probably need to load the ListItemAllFields property here. context.ExecuteQuery(); var listItem = fileItem.ListItemAllFields; Console.WriteLine(listItem["Title"]); Source - [getlistitemstrurl-equivalent-for-clientcontext][2] Hope it helps :) [1]: http://sharepoint.stackexchange.com/questions/17489/how-to-get-list-by-url-using-client-object-model/17504#17504 [2]: http://sharepoint.stackexchange.com/questions/43833/getlistitemstrurl-equivalent-for-clientcontext
