# Microsoft SharePoint

You can use the Microsoft SharePoint connector from the CData Sync application to capture data
from Microsoft SharePoint and move it to any supported destination. To do so, you need to add
the connector, authenticate to the connector, and complete your connection.

## Add the Microsoft SharePoint Connector

To enable Sync to use data from Microsoft SharePoint, you first must add the
connector, as follows:

<ol>
  <li>Open the **Connections** page of the Sync dashboard.</li>
  <li>Click **Add Connection** to open the **Select Connectors** page.</li>
  <li>Click the **Sources** tab and locate
  the **Microsoft SharePoint** row.</li>

  <li>
    Click the **Configure Connection** icon at the end of that row to open
    the **New Connection** page. This action opens the
    **Add Connection** dialog.

    **Note:** If the **Configure Connection** icon is not
    available, click the **Download Connector** icon to install
    the Microsoft SharePoint connector.
  </li>

  <li>Enter a name for your connection in the **Add Connection** dialog.</li>
  <li>Click **Add** to open the **Settings** tab for your connector.</li>
</ol>

For more information about installing new connectors, see
[Connections](https://docs.sync.cdata.com/26.4/en/connections/connections.md).

## Authenticate to Microsoft SharePoint

After you add the connector, you need to set the required properties.

* **URL:** Enter the base URL for your SharePoint site.
* **Share Point Edition:** Select the edition of SharePoint that you are using. The default edition is **SharePoint OnPremise**.

CData Sync supports authenticating to Microsoft SharePoint in several ways. Select your authentication method below to proceed to the relevant section that contains the authentication details.

* [**NTLM**](#ntlm)
* [**Negotiate**](#negotiate)
* [**None**](#none)
* [**Basic**](#basic)
* [**Active Directory Federation Services**](#active-directory-federation-services)

### NTLM

To connect with NTLM user credentials, specify the following properties:

<ul><li>**Auth Scheme:** Select **NTLM**.</li>
<li>**User:** Enter the username that you use to authenticate to your Microsoft SharePoint server.</li>
<li>**Password:** Enter the password that you use to authenticate to your Microsoft SharePoint server.</li></ul>

### Negotiate

To connect with Kerberos credentials, specify the following properties:

* **Auth Scheme:** Select **Negotiate**.
* **User:** Enter the username that you use to authenticate to your Microsoft SharePoint account.
* **Password:** Enter the password that you use to authenticate to your Microsoft SharePoint account.

### None

To connect without authentication, select **None** for **Auth Scheme**. No additional properties are required.

### Basic

To connect with your user credentials, set the following properties:

<ul><li>**Auth Scheme:** Select **Basic**.</li>
<li>**User:** Enter the username that you use to authenticate to your Microsoft SharePoint account.</li>
<li>**Password:** Enter the password that you use to authenticate to your Microsoft SharePoint account.</li></ul>

### Active Directory Federation Services

To connect with single sign-on (SSO) via ADFS, specify the following properties:

* **Auth Scheme:** Select **ADFS**.
* **User:** Enter the username that you use to authenticate to your ADFS account.
* **Password:** Enter the password that you use to authenticate to your ADFS account.
* **SSO Login Domain:** Enter the domain that is configured with the ADFS identity provider.

## Complete Your Connection

To complete your connection:

1. For **Schema**, select the schema that you want to use. The default schema is **SOAP**.
2. Define advanced connection settings on the **Advanced** tab. (In most cases, though, you should not need these settings.)
3. Click **Connect to Microsoft SharePoint** to connect to your Microsoft SharePoint account.
4. Click **Create & Test** to create your connection.
