SharePoint

For organizations using Microsoft SharePoint Online for document management, integrating Managed File Transfer (MFT) capabilities enhances automation and security.

Integration with SharePoint and Azure Cloud ​

SFTPPlus MFT is designed to be integrated with any cloud environment. For SharePoint Online, this means using OAuth2 for authentication and the Microsoft Graph API for interaction. This method ensures file transfers meet security standards. By using OAuth2, SFTPPlus accesses SharePoint resources without storing credentials. The MS Graph API allows SFTPPlus to interact with SharePoint.

File Transfers to SharePoint Document Libraries ​

SFTPPlus's SharePoint Online support enables direct file transfers to SharePoint Document Libraries. Whether uploading reports or synchronizing files, SFTPPlus simplifies the process. This makes SharePoint part of your automated file transfer workflows, reducing manual effort.

All SFTPPlus MFT Features for SharePoint Online ​

What makes this integration powerful is that all SFTPPlus transfer features are supported for SharePoint Online. You can apply the same level of control and auditing to your SharePoint transfers as to other endpoints. Key features include:

  • Scheduling: Automate transfers at specific times.
  • Event-Driven Transfers: Trigger transfers based on file changes.
  • Logging and Auditing: Track all transfer activities for compliance.
  • Encryption and Integrity Checks: Secure data in transit and at rest.
  • Error Handling: Build workflows that can recover from issues.

Why this matters ​

For businesses, SFTPPlus MFT's support for SharePoint Online leads to improved efficiency, security, and compliance. It helps organizations:

  • Automate data workflows involving SharePoint.
  • Ensure data security when moving files to and from the cloud.
  • Maintain compliance with audit trails and secure protocols.
  • Integrate SharePoint into MFT strategies.

Bridging File Transfers to SharePoint Online ​

SFTPPlus acts as a versatile bridge for moving files from a variety of sources to SharePoint Online Document Libraries. This capability allows you to consolidate and automate your data workflows regardless of where your files originate. Instead of relying on manual uploads or complex, custom scripts, SFTPPlus provides a unified platform to manage these transfers.

This feature is particularly useful for organizations that:

  • Receive files from partners via SFTP or FTP: Automatically move incoming files from an SFTP server to a specific SharePoint folder for team access and collaboration.
  • Use Azure Blob Storage or other cloud services: Transfer data from a primary cloud storage account to SharePoint for distribution or archiving purposes.
  • Have legacy systems: Pull files from older file servers and push them directly into a modern SharePoint environment.

By bridging these different protocols and storage locations, SFTPPlus ensures that your files are securely and reliably delivered to your SharePoint instance, streamlining your data management processes.
