Sharepoint to S3

[Jean-Michel]

Hello

We would like to use our Linux (cloud EC2 instance) to copy some files from a customer's Sharepoint site to an AWS S3 bucket of ours.
No problem on the AWS3 destination, we have full control and understanding

But Sharepoint it's a total mystery for us

So looking at the configuration page https://www.syncovery.com/sync-migrate-sharepoint/
We are wondering:
1) Is that description only valid to run Syncovery on a Windows computer with access to Sharepoint ?
2) Or can we just need the authorization to be done on Windows and then use it with our AWS EC2 Linux instance ? Like getting some token

At last I can see options in our Syncovery Linux such as "OneDrive New", "OneDrive for Business", "Sharepoint", "Graph" so I would assume the 2nd is possible

Thanks

Jean-Michel

Hello,
the authorization must be done on the Linux machine.

It works the same way as on Windows:
- click the Cloud button
- choose Graph
- enter domain into the domain field, such as xyzabcd.com
- click the upper Browse button
- then, you should see a dialog with a link "Click here to authorize Syncovery with the cloud service".
- click the link and authorize Syncovery
- after a while, you will see a list of sites, subsites, groups and drives where you can choose the drive/library you need.
- finally, you can use the lower Browse button to choose a folder within the library.

The only difference is that the library selection dialog on Linux is not as pretty as on Windows, and it's not hierarchical. Therefore, it takes longer on Linux to build the list to choose from.

If it takes way too long, you can actually use the Windows version to get the connection path you need and copy that over to the Linux version. Only the path (similar to a URL) can be shared, not the authorization.

Syncovery does not take normal Sharepoint URLs. It constructs its own connection path, which looks similar to this:
ext://superflexible.sharepoint.com:[supersite]Documents (ID:b!SLAFIJKGxxxxxx)

The important part is really the drive ID in parentheses. The rest of the string is only informational.

Please try it and let me know if questions remain!
