Sharepoint Connector/Input Tool Question

Hello. My team has synchronized our SharePoint site with OneDrive and has been using the input tool to import files. However, we've encountered a problem: OneDrive is specific to each individual, so every new person running a workflow needs to re-link the input file. To address this issue, I've considered using the SharePoint connector tool.

 

I work for a large company and have been dealing with some administrative access issues with our IT team. Despite managing to connect to SharePoint using the Sharepoint connector tool, I discovered that our SharePoint site is set to "Private," and I can't find a way to pull the data into Alteryx.

 

Has anyone else experienced a similar situation and can offer some advice?

Update your input tool to use Relative Paths instead of Absolute paths. This should resolve the issue you are facing when people are syncing the sharepoints to OneDrive.
