SharePoint

The SharePoint integration lets you import and sync documents from SharePoint into projects. It uses Microsoft Graph with delegated access, which means actions run under the signed-in user’s identity and permissions.

In project work, SharePoint typically acts as the source of truth for approved documents: files are managed in SharePoint and imported or synced into a project so that everyone works from the same version.

Important:

  • SharePoint is only available if your organization has enabled it and it is correctly configured.
  • The UI typically uses three status flags: enabled, configured, connected.
  • Setup is handled by admins; see the SSO and SharePoint admin guide.

You can use SharePoint actions when:

  • SharePoint is enabled for your org, and
  • it is configured (server settings complete), and
  • it is connected (auth/connection OK), and
  • your project is linked to a SharePoint site (via import).

If any of these are missing, actions may be hidden or fail.

In the projects list (if available) you can:

  1. choose “Import from SharePoint”,
  2. enter a project name,
  3. select a SharePoint site (recent or search),
  4. select top-level folders (or the entire site),
  5. start the import.

In a linked project you may see:

  • linked site URL,
  • import job status,
  • “check changes” (detect deltas),
  • “sync” (apply deltas).

Tips:

  • use “check changes” before syncing if you want a quick estimate,
  • large sites take longer and may hit limits (file count, size, permissions).

After the initial import you can often add more top-level folders:

  • open the folder selection modal,
  • select folders,
  • run “import folders”.

If a document has a SharePoint web_url, the UI may show “Open in Word/SharePoint” instead of a preview (depending on file type).

  • “Not connected”: admin/IT needs to fix the connection.
  • “Permission denied”: you lack rights to the site/folder.
  • “Max file count exceeded”: import in smaller chunks.
