SharePoint connection

To extract files from Microsoft SharePoint Online using Data Integration, you must register an application in Microsoft Azure and grant it the permissions required to access SharePoint. Complete the steps on this page once per Azure tenant: you use the credentials you generate here when you create the connection in Data Integration.

Prerequisites

• A Microsoft 365 account with SharePoint Online enabled.
• A user account with Global Administrator permissions in Microsoft Entra ID (required to grant admin consent).

Step 1: Registering an Azure app

1. Sign in to the Azure portal.
2. Navigate to Microsoft Entra ID > App registrations > New registration.
3. Enter a name for the app, for example, Boomi SharePoint Connector.
4. Set Supported account types to Single tenant.
5. Click Register.

Step 2: Copying your credentials

From the app's Overview page, copy the following values. You need them when you create the connection in Data Integration:

• Directory (tenant) ID: this is your Tenant ID.
• Application (client) ID: this is your Client ID.

Step 3: Creating a client secret

1. In the app, go to Certificates & secrets > New client secret.
2. Enter a description and set an expiry period, then click Add.
3. Copy the Value immediately. This value is only visible once and cannot be retrieved after you navigate away from the page.

Step 4: Granting API permissions

note

This step requires a Global Administrator to approve the permission grant. If you do not have this role, coordinate with your Azure administrator before proceeding.

1. Go to API Permissions > Add a permission > Microsoft Graph > Application permissions.
2. Find Sites.Read.All and select it.
3. Click Grant admin consent. A Global Administrator must approve this request.

Step 5: Creating the connection in Data Integration

1. In Data Integration, open the SharePoint connector connection form.
2. Enter the credentials you collected:
   • Tenant ID
   • Client ID
   • Client Secret
3. Click Save.
