I am trying to retrieve a sharepoint list in Ignition. I am really new to python and would appreciate any guidance. I was hoping there was a way to do it without installing any additional python modules.

Sharepoint does have an API. Take a look here: [http://chuvash.eu/2014/03/25/using-caml-with-sharepoint-rest-api/](http://chuvash.eu/2014/03/25/using-caml-with-sharepoint-rest-api/).  
You would use http get from [system.net](http://system.net) in script.
