Enabling Sharepoint integration

(2) ShareShare

Posted on by 305

Hi all

I'm about to hit the button to setup SharePoint integration here. Can someone just confirm for me what impact this will have on the SharePoint side? I can see that some features are enabled in Dynamics 365 (2020 Wave2) but before I commit I also need to know if there will be any changes or auto-writes to the SharePoint site, as it's used by other departments.

    Hi,

    When you setup Sharepoint integration and enable entities checkbox, System will create Folder under Sharepoint sites for those entities.

    By enabling SharePoint Integration, you can use the document management capabilities of SharePoint from within customer engagement apps. You can store and manage documents in the context of a record on a SharePoint Server, and leverage the SharePoint infrastructure to share, manage, and collaborate efficiently. Because the documents are stored on a SharePoint Server, non-customer engagement apps users can directly access the documents on the SharePoint Server, provided they have the appropriate permissions.

    For document management functionality, you enable server-based SharePoint integration (recommended) on a site collection in SharePoint. Server-based SharePoint provides the following benefits.

    Users sign-in once and do not have to sign-in to both customer engagement apps and SharePoint.

    No additional software is required to install on SharePoint.

    SharePoint documents will display in lists.

    Users can perform SharePoint actions from the command bar.

    Hi Olly,

    I understand you're about to set up SharePoint integration and want to know how it will impact your SharePoint site, especially since other departments use it.

    Once you integrate SharePoint with Dynamics 365, a document library is automatically created in SharePoint to store related documents. Suppose you plan to migrate CRM documents and attachments to SharePoint. In that case, you can use Inogic’s Attach2Dynamics app, which offers seamless integration for storage management with cloud storage providers like SharePoint, Dropbox, and Azure Blob Storage. This tool allows you to drag and drop files, upload multiple files or folders simultaneously, and manage documents within a user-friendly interface. You can also generate shareable links, and rename, delete, email, and preview files directly within the CRM.

    In case you need a more comprehensive solution that combines storage utilization, document management, and SharePoint security, Inogic’s SharePoint Security Sync app is a great choice. It enhances the native integration between Dynamics 365 CRM and SharePoint by not only managing document folders but also synchronizing security privileges between CRM and SharePoint. This ensures secure, controlled access to documents and provides a streamlined, seamless document and storage management experience across both systems.

    Experience the full potential of your CRM with a 15-day free trial! You can install Attach2Dynamics and SharePoint Security Sync apps from the Inogic website or Microsoft AppSource.
