Microsoft SharePoint connector

What is Microsoft SharePoint?

Microsoft SharePoint offers a solution to share and manage content, knowledge, and applications to empower teamwork and seamlessly collaborate across the organization in a secure manner.

About Kissflow's Microsoft SharePoint integration

The Microsoft SharePoint connector of Kissflow Integration enables you to connect and synchronize your Microsoft SharePoint folders and files with popular Kissflow apps. You must have a valid Microsoft account and be a paid Kissflow customer to integrate with Microsoft SharePoint.

Use the Microsoft SharePoint connector to receive data from other flows or apps to perform specific actions. The connector for Microsoft SharePoint does not support any trigger events yet.

For example, after completing a Kissflow Project task, you can set up an integration with the Microsoft SharePoint connector to save attachments or files to a specific document library in your Microsoft SharePoint account.
