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.
When does SharePoint work?
Section titled “When does SharePoint work?”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.
Create a project from SharePoint
Section titled “Create a project from SharePoint”In the projects list (if available) you can:
- choose “Import from SharePoint”,
- enter a project name,
- select a SharePoint site (recent or search),
- select top-level folders (or the entire site),
- start the import.
Project linking and sync
Section titled “Project linking and sync”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).
Import additional folders
Section titled “Import additional folders”After the initial import you can often add more top-level folders:
- open the folder selection modal,
- select folders,
- run “import folders”.
Open documents in SharePoint
Section titled “Open documents in SharePoint”If a document has a SharePoint web_url, the UI may show “Open in Word/SharePoint” instead of a preview (depending on file type).
Common issues
Section titled “Common issues”- “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.
