SharePoint integration

SharePoint is a web application platform in the Microsoft Office server suite, commonly used for corporate intranets, extranets and file sharing.

• SharePoint provides various application programming interfaces (APIs: client-side, server-side, JavaScript) and REST, SOAP and OData based interfaces.
• SharePoint is most commonly implemented with Integrated Windows Authentication, which is not supported by the HMP, nevertheless SharePoint can also use Basic or Digest authentication, which are compatible.
• SharePoint supports RSS for lists and WebDAV for Document Libraries, which in principle allows content to be pulled by an HMP.
  • You can obtain the WebDAV URI for a Document library by clicking 'Tools' > 'Show in Explorer View' in any Document Library. The address that opens is the WebDAV address, which can be used by the HMP to pull content.
• Database

  SharePoint is based on SQL server. The HMP cannot execute queries directly on the SQL server, thus you can either export the required information as XML or use a web service that runs queries on the SQL database and returns the result to the HMP using one of the data feeds supported formats (e.g., CSV, JSON, XML etc.).

Note:

Starting with Elementi 2018, SharePoint lists can be displayed with the built-in spreadsheet widgets.
