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
WorkflowsAzureSharepointFetchfeature. 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
| Setting | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|
| Files | The 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Fetched file seems outdated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.
