Using the Activity

The Use OneDrive & SharePoint activity can be used with or without a connection to the Integration Service. Choose the desired method by simply selecting, or not, the Use Integration Service option from the Properties Panel. When the option is selected, it indicates that the Integration Service manages the connection.

When using the Integration Service

Add a new account or use an account connection you already added to the Integration Service.

  • If a connection does not already exist, select Add new account from the dropdown menu to add a new account connection. A new browser window opens and you are guided through the process of creating a connection.
  • If an account has already been added, it is automatically detected, and displayed in the menu.
When not using the Integration Service

Add a new account or select an account you have already added from a Use OneDrive & SharePoint activity.

  • If you choose to add a new account and the Microsoft 365 application and tenant IDs are added in Orchestrator, you are prompted to sign in to your Microsoft account.
  • If you choose to add a new account and the Microsoft 365 application and tenant IDs are not added in Orchestrator, the Add Exchange Account dialog box opens to help you add the account:

    • Authentication type - Select My ID/Tenant to enter your organization's own application ID and tenant ID in the provided fields.
    • Click OK to sign in to your Microsoft account.
