==================================
Configuring SharePoint Integration
==================================
Native SharePoint support has been added to the ownCloud Enterprise edition as a
secondary storage location for SharePoint 2007, 2010 and 2013. When this is
enabled, users can access and sync all of their SharePoint content via ownCloud,
whether in the desktop sync, mobile or Web interfaces. Updated files are
bi-directionally synced automatically. SharePoint shares are created by the
ownCloud admin, and optionally by any users who have SharePoint credentials.
The ownCloud SharePoint plugin uses SharePoint document lists as remote storage
folders. ownCloud respects SharePoint access control lists (ACLs), so ownCloud
sharing is intentionally disabled for SharePoint mountpoints. This is to
preserve SharePoint ACLs and ensure content is properly accessed as per
SharePoint rules.
The plugin uses the Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) and WebDAV for the
uploads and downloads to talk to SharePoint servers. Your ownCloud server must
have ``php-soap`` or ``php5-soap`` installed. Linux packages and ownCloud
appliances will install ``php5-soap`` as a required dependency.
The supported authentication methods are:
* Basic Auth
* NTLM (Recommended)
Creating a Sharepoint Mount
---------------------------
Enable the Sharepoint app, and then enter the ``Admin`` panel to set up
SharePoint connections in the ``SharePoint Drive Configuration`` section.
Enter your SharePoint Listing credentials. These credentials are not
stored in the database, but are used only during plugin setup to list the
Document Libraries available per SharePoint site.

``Global credentials`` is optional. If you fill in these fields, these
credentials will be used on on all SharePoint mounts where you select: **Use
global credentials** as the authentication credentials.

Enter your ownCloud mountpoint in the ``Local Folder Name`` column. This is the
name of the folder that each user will see on the ownCloud filesystem. You may
use an existing folder, or enter a name to create a new mount point
Select who will have access to this mountpoint, by default **All users**, or a
user or a group.
Enter your SharePoint server URL, then click the little refresh icon to the left
of the ``Document Library`` field. If your credentials and URL are correct
you'll get a dropdown list of available SharePoint libraries. Select the
document library you want to mount.

:alt: Selecting auth credentials.
Select which kind of Authentication credentials you want to use for this
mountpoint. If you select **Custom credentials** you will have to enter the
the credentials on this line. Otherwise, the global credentials or the user's
own credentials will be used. Click Save, and you're done
.. Please see ``Connecting to SharePoint`` in the User Manual to learn how to
.. use your new SharePoint connections.
Enabling Users
--------------
You may allow your users to create their own Sharepoint mounts on their
Personal pages, and allow sharing on these mounts.

Note
----
Speed up load times by disabling file previews in ``config.php``, because the
previews are generated by downloading the remote files to a temp file. This
means ownCloud will spend a lot of time creating previews for all of your
SharePoint content. To disable file previews, add the following line to the
ownCloud config file found in ``/owncloud/config/config.php``::
'enable_previews' => false,
Troubleshooting
---------------
SharePoint unsharing is handled in the background via Cron. If you remove the
sharing option from a Sharepoint mount, it will take a little time for the
share to be removed, until the Cron job runs
Turn on Sharepoint app logging by modifying the following line in
:file:`apps/sharepoint/lib/sharepoint.php` to ``TRUE``::
private static $enableLogs = TRUE;
Global mount points can't be accessed: You have to fill out your SharePoint
credentials as User on the personal settings page, or in the popup menu. These
credentials are used to mount all global mount points.
Personal mount points can't be accessed: You have to fill your SharePoint
credentials as User on the personal settings page in case your personal mount
point doesn't have its own credentials.
A user can't update the credentials: Verify that the correct credentials are
configured, and the correct type, either global or custom.
