Limitations
This section outlines known issues and limitations that may affect your use of the Microsoft SharePoint connector.
-
Enforcing a VPC Service Controls perimeter on existing Microsoft SharePoint data stores is not supported. To enforce VPC Service Controls, you must delete and recreate the data stores. For more information on VPC Service Controls and how to use actions after enabling VPC Service Controls, see Secure your app with VPC Service Controls .
-
The Microsoft SharePoint data store is supported only in Global, US, and EU locations.
-
When creating a new application or adding a data store to an existing application, we recommend that you add a data store with actions belonging to a single connector type. For example, don't associate two Microsoft SharePoint data stores with actions enabled to the same application.
The following are the limitations for the Microsoft SharePoint federated connector:
- Search limitations: Search results may vary and are not always comprehensive for all file types. Content in archived or encrypted folders may not be accessible for search. Federated search does not support searching within attachments.
- Delegated access:Access to shared sites or libraries may require specific permissions not covered by standard user authorization.
