officially support writing to SharePoint document libraries

[denny]

Currently Alteryx does not support writing to SharePoint document libraries.

However there are success sometimes but not at other times.

Please see attachment where we ran into an issue.

See this link for additional information.

We need official support for reading and writing to SharePoint document libraries.

It's an important Output target, and will becoming more so, as Alteryx enhances its reporting capabilities.

We are already in the Design phase for this connector; I cannot still commit to any timeline but we are starting the work.Sorry it takes long.

Hi Bora,
Thanks for the update. It would be great to know if this is months or quarters away.

Its a frequent demand in projects to upload ,download or publish file to sharepoint folder .

More over if there are sub directories which are present in libraries but with space ( ex: Report Run) , is not easy to use  as always connector prompts for list of objects available in site not able to browse inside .

Any update?

In the interim, we have developed a non-user secured workaround where we sync relevant document libraries to the Alteryx Server (the service account is granted access to the SharePoint document library) and then share those to Alteryx users with an AD group that we have then users can run locally or via gallery with the UNC file path of \\<Alteryx Server Host Name>\<File Share Name>\

Not pretty but it works. Hopeful that the connector is coming quickly!

Hi !  We encountered the same problems and also went the route of sync'ing OD folders on Alteryx Server.  But when the amount of filespace required on Server grew, we bit the bullet and worked on writing a pair of macros that leverage the Sharepoint API.  Had to work with our IT team to build out the authorisation portion, but got it working in the end.  Hoping that Alteryx will actually create a proper connector (or pair of connectors) that achieves the same result.

Adding my request for this feature. We need to be able to input files from a SharePoint library and output files to a SharePoint library when running workflows on the server / gallery.

Please upgrade the Download tool so you can write file as a different AD user (write to SharePoint folder) for when running on Alteryx Server.
