SharePoint is a web-based collaborative platform that integrates natively with Microsoft 365. SharePoint cloud-based storage solution that allows you to save files online and access them anywhere from any smartphone, tablet, or computer. You can use SharePoint on your computer or mobile device to securely upload files and edit them online.
By integrating your Webdam portal and SharePoint account, you are able to seamlessly connect assets between the two by automatically moving assets and their fields from your SharePoint account to Webdam, without downloading from SharePoint and re-uploading to Webdam.
This integration is part of the Integrations Hub

How to Set up the Integration
Admins will be able to set up and configure the integration.
- Navigate to Settings > System Preferences > Integrations Hub.
- Click Browse Integrations in the left sidebar, then Configure in the Sharepoint section.
- Enter a Name for this Configuration and click Save.
- Review the information, then click Next.
- If you've already configured a Webdam connection, it will be selected. If not, select New Authentication to add the following:
- Your authentication name: Enter a name for the authentication.
- Client ID and Client Secret: This is the Client ID and Secret from Webdam. If you aren't sure what yours is, please contact the support team.
- To obtain the Tenant ID, Client ID, and Client Secret, you must create and register an App in Azure. Follow the steps here.
- Once you have registered the App in Azure, you can Paste the Tenant ID, Client ID, and Client Secret on the Authentication Modal for SharePoint.
- Choose the Sharepoint Site.
- Select the Sharepoint Document Library.
- Click Sharepoint Folder to choose which Sharepoint folder you want to sync with Webdam.
- Select the Webdam Folder where SharePoint assets/ folders will be uploaded to.
- Include Sub-folders: You can choose whether sub-folders in the selected folder will sync to Webdam.
- Check the box if you want assets in the sub-folders to be synced to Webdam.
- Leave the box unchecked if only assets uploaded to the folder selected should be uploaded to Webdam.
- Large folder structures will slow the total time to synchronize assets from SharePoint.
Consider creating multiple Sharepoint connections for specific sub-folders within the main folder if your folder structure is large. -
Fields Mapping: Choose Webdam metadata fields with values written from SharePoint-supported columns.
- Supported Sharepoint columns: text, note, dateTime, number, boolean, URL, currency, location, and multichoice.
-
Unsupported Types: unknownFutureValue, multiterm, user, thumbnail, term.
(optional)
- Select a Sharepoint Content Type. Choose an option under Webdam Fields and select a field from the dropdown.
- Select a Webdam field type from the dropdown to map to the Sharepoint Columns or Value.
- Click Add to Configuration to add additional fields.
- 'Sharepoint' and the Sharepoint file ID will be added to the keyword tags, and a link to the synced Sharepoint folder will be added to the Description.
- Click Next, then Finish.
How to Use the Integration
After Configuration, all assets in the selected SharePoint folders will be uploaded to your Webdam after 2 hours. Moving forward, any assets and data added or moved to the selected folder (or sub-folders) in the configured Sharepoint account will automatically be uploaded to Webdam after about 2 hours. Only supported Webdam-supported asset types will sync.
If the asset already exists in Webdam, the integration will not duplicate the asset. If you delete an asset from your Sharepoint account, it will not automatically be removed from your Webdam. If you delete a Sharepoint asset from your Webdam folder, it will remain in your Sharepoint account.
If you would like an additional synced SharePoint folder, you must configure another SharePoint workflow.
