Microsoft SharePoint
Connect SharePoint to Quin to search, upload, organize, and manage files across your SharePoint sites without leaving your workflow.
Connect Microsoft SharePoint to Quin to search, upload, and organize files across your SharePoint sites. Ask Quin to find documents, create folders, move files, and more — without switching apps.
Before you begin
You need a Microsoft account with access to at least one SharePoint site.
How to set it up
- Go to Settings > Integrations
- Click Add Integration
- Select SharePoint from the list
- Click Connect and sign in to your Microsoft account
- Review the permissions Quin requests (read and write access to your SharePoint sites and files)
- Click Authorize to complete the connection
Your SharePoint integration will now appear as active on your Integrations page.
What to expect
After connecting SharePoint, Quin can access your sites, libraries, and files when you ask for them. You can ask Quin to find a document by name or content, upload files from your conversation, create or rename folders, move files between locations, and delete files or folders with confirmation. Quin only makes changes when you explicitly request them — your existing files remain unchanged unless you ask Quin to act on them.
How it works
Quin can work across these areas of your SharePoint environment:
Sites and libraries — Quin can discover the SharePoint sites you have access to and list document libraries within them, so it can target the right location when searching or saving files.
Folders — You can ask Quin to search for folders by name, create new folders in a library, rename or move existing folders, or delete them. Quin confirms before deleting.
Files — Quin can search for files by name, content, file type, or folder location. You can ask Quin to upload files already in your chat, from a URL, or from raw text content. Quin can also rename, move, or delete files, and download files into the conversation for review or analysis.
Troubleshooting
Quin can't find a file I know exists
- Confirm the file is in a SharePoint site your account has access to
- Try searching by a different term — file name, content keyword, or folder name
- Verify the integration is still connected in Settings > Integrations
Quin says it doesn't have access to a site
- Check that your Microsoft account has permission to access that SharePoint site
- Try disconnecting and reconnecting the integration to refresh your permissions
- Contact your Microsoft 365 admin if site access needs to be granted
A file upload didn't appear in SharePoint
- Confirm you specified a site and library for the upload
- Check that your account has write permissions for that library
- Try the upload again and specify the exact destination folder
