Notes when integrating SharePoint
1. Verify Application Administrator privileges within Entra
When integrating Alli with SharePoint, an approval popup may appear. This is because the integration account does not have Application Administrator privileges within Entragranted. In this case, you need to reset the privileges for that account within Entra.
How to set:
Grant the account you want to integrate with Alli (Entra account) Application Administrator privileges.
Once the privileges are granted, the screen above will appear when you click the integrate button. Click the 'Accept' button.
2. Verify Site Collection Administrator in SharePoint
If user or group information cannot be retrieved from a specific SharePoint site, check the site collection administrator privilegesbecause without this permission some information may not display correctly during integration.
Where to configure:
SharePoint Site Settings > Site Access > Advanced access settings > Site collection administrator settings
Note: Advanced access settings are not visible to all members and can only be accessed by administrators with higher privileges. If necessary, additionally confirm with the SharePoint administrator whether the permissions have been applied.
How to set:
Enter the account you want to integrate with Alli in the site collection administrator field.
3. Check Everyone Except External Users (special group) on folders and files
If the "Everyone except external users" permission is applied to SharePoint files and folders, all users will also have accessin Alli.
Files/folders with this permission will have the "All members of this project can view" option enabled in Alli during integration.
4. Handling when folder or file names are duplicated
In SharePoint, multiple folders with the same name can exist in the same location. Because Alli does not support folders with identical names in the same location, during integration the site name and folder name are handled as follows.
The unique site URL is shown in parentheses after the site name.
A unique hash value is shown in parentheses after the folder name.
5. If only certain files fail to integrate, check file size
Alli supports up to 50MB per file. If the file you want to integrate exceeds 50MB, that file may fail to integrate, so if there are documents that must be integrated into Alli, please check the individual file sizes.
