Sharepoint file connector setup

For the purpose of this how to, the Entra application will be named App_DataPlus and the Sharepoint SP_DataPlus.
Furthermore, the Microsoft Graph Explorer  will be used.

The Data+ Sharepoint connector requires the following parameters:

• Tenant ID
• Client (application) ID
• Client Secret
• Drive ID

1. Create the sharepoint site

2. Create an application registration

• From the overview page, get the application (client) ID and Directory (tenant) ID.

• API permissions:
  • Remove User.Read
  • Add Sites.Selected (Add a permission->Microsoft Graph->Application permissions->Sites.Selected)
  • Grant admin consent

• Create a client secret

Get the site ID

The Sharepoint site ID can be found at https://{company}.sharepoint.com/sites/SP_DataPlus/_api/site/id

Get the Drive ID

Graph Explorer:

https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/sites/{SiteID}/drive

Check the gathered parameters

An initial parameter check can be done now. The Data+ file connector should show an access denied message.

Grant site access to the application

Graph explorer POST:

https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/sites/{siteId}/permissions

{
  "roles": ["write"],
  "grantedToIdentities": [{
    "application": {
      "id": "{application (client) Id}",
      "displayName": "{Description}"
    }
  }]
}

The Data+ file connection should work now.
