Implications of groups for SharePoint permissions

When a restricted (Members Only, Private, or Private Unlisted) group is created, users have rights to the content on the SharePoint side according to their Jive-side group membership.

By default, only people who are members of (or are following) an Open group have access to content on the SharePoint side. Until users join or are added to the group, Open group content is not visible on the SharePoint side. If this does not reflect your security model, you have the option to configure the SharePoint add-on to identify the Everyone principal, as described in Installing SharePoint integration add-on. Specifying the Everyone principal defines the list of users who have read-write access to Open group content.

Members of the SharePoint Online Full Control Users group have full rights to all SharePoint-connected places in the Jive community and can also delete content on either side of the integration. Jive group membership does not affect their permissions to content on the SharePoint side.

* Requires an Everyone principal in SharePoint to be mapped in the add-on settings during Jive-side setup. For more information, see Installing SharePoint integration add-on.

** Requires the Full Control principal in SharePoint to be mapped in the add-on settings during Jive-side setup. For more information, see Installing SharePoint integration add-on.
