Introduction

SharePoint is a web-based platform developed by Microsoft that serves as a collaboration and document management system. It provides a centralized location where teams can store, organize, share and collaborate on files and documents.

With SharePoint, users can create team sites, document libraries and lists to manage and store various types of content. It offers features such as version control, permissions management and document workflow, ensuring that teams can work together efficiently and securely.

In Quill we allow connecting with Sharepoint to automatically upload and download documents.

We offer two connector activities for integration with SharePoint one to Upload completed documents (from Quill to SharePoint) and one to Download documents (from SharePoint to Quill). Both connectors can be configured via the interface.

Questions asked

• What happens when you want to sign a document stored in SharePoint using Quill?
• Does Quill replicate the SharePoint folder structure?
• How does the flow work technically?
• How can I restrict SharePoint access for a Quill integration without using Sites.ReadWrite.All?

Conclusion

By configuring connector activities, Quill enables seamless yet controlled document exchange with SharePoint. While folder structures must be defined manually and do not sync automatically, users retain full control over uploads and downloads. Importantly, original documents in SharePoint remain untouched unless intentionally overwritten. With this setup, you've now successfully established a reliable connection between SharePoint and the Quill system.
