Pull from Azure SharePoint

Pull selected files from Azure SharePoint into a Multi FileFeed.

Pull from Azure SharePoint fetches one or more files from a linked SharePoint site and brings them into your Multi FileFeed (MFF) as input files. Use it to source files directly from SharePoint document libraries your organization already uses.

Availability: Beta. Requires the WorkflowsAzureSharepointFetch feature. Contact your OneSchema support representative if you do not see this transform.

What it does

  • Input: source (no upstream input). This transform starts an MFF branch by connecting directly to Azure SharePoint.
  • Output: one file per selected SharePoint file, in its original format.
  • The transform connects to your linked SharePoint site, retrieves the files you select, and passes them downstream unchanged.

When to use it

  • Internal teams or partners upload files to a shared SharePoint document library.
  • You want to remove a manual download-and-upload step from a recurring process.
  • You need to combine SharePoint-sourced files with files fetched from other connectors in the same MFF.

How to configure it

In the MFF builder, add a Pull from Azure SharePoint node as a source at the start of your MFF.

Settings

SettingDescriptionDefault
FilesThe list of SharePoint files or document library paths to fetch as input files.None selected

Configuration tips

  • Point to the specific document library and folder path rather than a whole site to avoid ambiguity when multiple files share a name.
  • If a file is checked out or locked for editing in SharePoint, the fetch may return the last checked-in version.

Example

Setup

A finance team uploads a weekly expenses.xlsx file to a SharePoint document library.

Output

The MFF receives expenses.xlsx as an input file, ready for a Convert to CSV or extraction transform downstream.

Troubleshooting

"File not found" errors

  • Confirm the file hasn't been moved, renamed, or deleted.
  • Reconnect your SharePoint account if permissions or site access have changed.

Fetched file seems outdated

  • Check whether the file is checked out by another user in SharePoint; this can cause the fetch to return an older version.
