SharePoint connection settings
While installing your SharePoint On-Prem add-on, you need to configure the add-on. To do this, use the following reference material to complete the ADFS settings and permissions form.
SharePoint Tenant Root URL | The URL of the SharePoint server. You can find this URL by navigating to
one of the sites in SharePoint you're planning to link to Jive and copy the path
up to the first forward slash. For example, if your site is located at
https://my.sharepoint.com/sites/site1/ , type
https://my.sharepoint.com . |
Allow SharePoint Connection Type | Select one of the following options from the list:
|
Authentication Settings |
Claims or NTLM authentication method are available. In Admin Username, you should provide the domain,
backslash, site collection admin. For example, type
|
SharePoint everyone user group | The name of the Everyone permissions group in SharePoint. If you specify this group, the users included will have read-write access to all content created in an Open group in Jive, even if they have not been added to the Jive group. This saves admins the work of having to add members to Open group content to grant access on the SharePoint side. Secret, Private, and Members-Only groups restrict content on both sides of the integration according to the Jive-side group settings, regardless of whether you supply Everyone information here. |
Sharepoint full control (admins) | Type the name of the Full Control admins permissions group in SharePoint. This group will have access to all SharePoint-connected groups in Jive. The best practice is to create a restricted group of admins in this principal who will be able to access all the Jive places and Jive-linked site collections. For more information, see Setting up permissions. |
Add New Site Collection list available for creating places | If you want users creating a place to be restricted to specific site
collections, click the + sign next to Add New
Site Collection list available for creating places and type the
location of a site collection. You can add more site collections by clicking
+ again. Users can choose from the list of site
collections when creating a group. Note that as the user configuring the add-on,
you must have access to these site collections, or you won't be able to complete
the configuration and will see a configuration error. CAUTION: Specifying at least one site collection is the best practice because it
limits the SharePoint locations where place creators can create sites, and
also prevents errors in specifying a URL. If you specify one or more
locations, users are not prompted to supply the URL of a site collection.
