Learn how to configure a connection to SharePoint with Couchdrop
Introduction
Connecting to SharePoint online is fast to set up and fully supported in Couchdrop. Couchdrop uses the Microsoft Graph API, which is the recommended method for connecting to SharePoint and OneDrive.
There are two different authentication methods available with SharePoint Online, Delegate Access or Application Access. The Couchdrop team recommends you use the default Delegate Access method, as it's simpler to configure.
Configuring Delegate access involves a standard OAuth login, and Application Access requires creating a custom application in your Azure Domain.
To use Application Access see Other Connectors
