The SharePoint Data Connector enables federated SQL queries on documents stored in SharePoint.

datasets:
  - from: sharepoint:drive:Documents/path:/top_secrets/
    name: important_documents
    params:
      sharepoint_client_id: ${secrets:SPICE_SHAREPOINT_CLIENT_ID}
      sharepoint_tenant_id: ${secrets:SPICE_SHAREPOINT_TENANT_ID}
      sharepoint_client_secret: ${secrets:SPICE_SHAREPOINT_CLIENT_SECRET}

Example

SELECT * FROM important_documents limit 1

Returns

The module is intended for nginx developers.\n\nThis module is not built by default, it should be enabled with the `--with-google_perftools_module` configuration parameter.\n\n> **Note:** This module requires the [gperftools](https://github.com/gperftools/gperftools) library.\n\n## Example Configuration\n\n```nginx
google_perftools_profiles /path/to/profile;\n```\n\nProfiles will be stored as `/path/to/profile.<worker_pid>`.\n\n## Directives\n\n### google_perftools_profiles\n\n- **Syntax:** `google_perftools_profiles file;`\n- **Default:** —\n- **Context:** `main`\n\nSets a file name that keeps profiling information of nginx worker process. The ID of the worker process is always a part of the file name and is appended to the end of the file name, after a dot.\n"

Configuration

Parameters

from formats

The from field in a SharePoint dataset takes the following format:

from: 'sharepoint:<drive_type>:<drive_id>/<subpath_type>:<subpath_value>'

Drives

For a name-based drive_id, the connector will attempt to resolve the name to an ID at startup.

Subpaths

Within a drive, the SharePoint connector can load documents from:

Authentication

Creating an Enterprise Application

To use the SharePoint connector with service principal authentication, you will need to create an Azure AD application and grant it the necessary permissions. This will also support OAuth2 authentication for users within the tenant (i.e. sharepoint_bearer_token).

1. Create a new Azure AD application in the Azure portal.
2. Under the application's API permissions, add the following permissions: Sites.Read.All, Files.Read.All, User.Read, GroupMember.Read.All
   • For service principal authentication, Application permissions are required.
   • For user authentication, only delegated permissions are required.
3. Add sharepoint_client_id (from the Application (Client) ID field) and sharepoint_tenant_id to the connector configuration.
4. Under the application's Certificates & secrets, create a new client secret. Use this for the sharepoint_client_secret parameter.
