Configuring a SharePoint Connection (Site admin only)
Steps to configure a connection between a board and a SharePoint site:
1. Go to Site Administration -> Certificates and Sites tab and generate a new certificate:
2. Click on the generated certificate and download it’s public key:
Generate New Version button creates a new version of the certificate with the same name and id. In this case, old public key becomes invalid and you must download a new public key.
3. Provide the public key to your SharePoint site administrator to register the app in Azure Active Directory. When the certificate expires you will need to update the certificate on this screen, download it’s new public key and pass it to your SharePoint site administrator.
4. Create new Remote Site and associate the generated certificate with it. Values for ClientID and Authority fields can be obtained from your SharePoint site administrator
You can test connection to verify the settings.
5. Go to Site Administration -> Remote Site Libraries tab and create a new library.
Site - The Url path of the specific SharePoint site you are connecting to (example: "sites/departments/accounting" or "sites/sales/reportsrepository").
Document Library - Virbeya needs to connect to a SharePoint Document Library. If you are connecting to a custom document library enter the name in this box. In this case the document library name is usually included in the URL as the last folder name in the URL (ignoring things like 'default.aspx', 'SitePages/Home.aspx' and '/Forms/AllItems?=...'). If you are using the default 'Shared Documents' library this name may not be in the URL and you can either enter "Shared Documents" into this box or you can leave it blank.
Remote Site (Host) – select the remote site created in the previous steps.
You can test connection to verify the settings.
6. Under the Boards section select the desired board, click on the icon and set connection to the remote site library:
