This action is externally visible and permanently alters item permissions; obtain explicit human approval for the target item and `role_definition_id` before executing. - Action **Add Role Assignment To List** Tool to add a role assignment to a SharePoint list. Requires the list to have broken role inheritance first via SHARE_POINT_BREAK_ROLE_INHERITANCE_ON_LIST; inheriting lists will reject unique role assignments. Use when granting permissions to a user or group on a specific list. - Action **Break Role Inheritance On Item** Tool to break permission inheritance on a list item. Call this before adding new role assignments; adding assignments prior leaves the item still inheriting parent permissions, causing unexpected access behavior. Use when you need to uniquely set permissions on an item after copying or clearing parent assignments. - Action **Break Role Inheritance On List** Breaks permission inheritance on a SharePoint list, allowing you to set unique permissions. When you break inheritance, you can choose to: - Copy parent permissions as a starting point (copy_role_assignments=true) - Start fresh with no inherited permissions (copy_role_assignments=false) - Clear unique permissions on child items to re-inherit from this list (clear_subscopes=true) Use this when you need to manage list-level permissions independently from the site.

This action retrieves the combined permissions a user has on the site, taking into account direct permissions, group memberships, and permission inheritance. Use this when you need to verify what permissions a user or group has before performing operations. The response contains permission masks as 64-bit integers split into high and low 32-bit values. A value of "0" for both means no permissions.

Use when you need to enumerate all files in a folder by its server-relative URL. To cover nested structures, call the tool separately for each subfolder. - Action **List Item Attachments** Tool to list all attachments for a SharePoint list item. Use when you need to retrieve filenames and server-relative URLs of each attachment after confirming the list title and item ID. - Action **List List Columns** List column definitions for a SharePoint list. First use SHARE_POINT_LIST_ALL_LISTS on the target site to obtain the list Id, then call this action with that list_id and the same site_name.

To use this action: 1. Provide the folder path and new leaf folder name. 2. The action updates the folder list item fields needed by SharePoint. The rename operation updates both the folder's display name (Title) and actual name (FileLeafRef). Note: This only changes the folder name, not its location in the hierarchy. - Action **Render List Data As Stream** Retrieve list items from SharePoint with rich metadata and formatting. Returns items in the 'Row' array along with pagination info (FirstRow, LastRow, NextHref). Supports CAML queries via ViewXml for filtering and sorting. Use this when you need list data with properly formatted field values, lookup fields, or managed metadata - more capable than standard OData endpoints. - Action **Resolve Sharing Link** Resolve a SharePoint sharing URL or provider share token to its underlying drive item.

Use this action when you need to discover files broadly across an organization without knowing specific drive IDs or site locations. Results are automatically filtered to show only document content types. A site_name changes the endpoint context but does not isolate results unless restrict_to_site_path is enabled or query contains an equivalent Path restriction. Use from_index and row_limit parameters to paginate through large result sets. - Action **Search Query** Search SharePoint content using Keyword Query Language (KQL). Returns documents, list items, folders, and other content matching your query. Supports filtering by properties (file type, author, date), pagination, and custom property selection. Results are nested under PrimaryQueryResult→RelevantResults→Table→Rows→Cells as Key/Value pairs requiring explicit extraction. Results are security-trimmed: inaccessible content never appears even if it exists. Use contentclass (e.g., STS_Site, STS_Web, STS_ListItem_DocumentLibrary) in querytext to isolate specific item types. A site_name changes the endpoint context but does not isolate results unless restrict_to_site_path is enabled or querytext contains an equivalent Path restriction. - Action **Sharepoint Check Out File** Tool to check out a file in a document library.

This operates on the list item behind the file, allowing you to set Title, Status, Owner, Categories, or any other library column. - Action **Update List** Tool to update properties of an existing SharePoint list. Use when you need to modify list metadata such as title, description, or settings like versioning and attachments. - Action **Update List Field** Update one or more mutable properties of an existing SharePoint list field identified by list and field GUID.

Use when you need to upload files directly from external URLs without downloading them to the client first. When a file with the same name already exists, use conflict_behavior to control the behavior: - 'replace': Overwrites the existing file (fails with HTTP 423 if the file is locked/open) - 'fail': Returns an error if a file with that name exists - 'rename': Uploads with an auto-generated suffix (e.g., 'report 1.docx'), bypassing file locks - Action **Upload Large File** Create a direct-v2 upload session and upload one file in sequential chunks. - Action **Validate And Update Document Fields** Validate and commit document-library field values for a SharePoint file. Inspect every returned HasException and ErrorMessage because HTTP 200 can include rejected fields. ## Each app on its own - [ **OneDrive** OneDrive is Microsoft’s cloud storage solution enabling users to store, sync, and share files across...](https://apiant.ai/connections/onedrive) - [ **Microsoft SharePoint** SharePoint is a Microsoft platform for document management and intranets, enabling teams to collaborate...](https://apiant.ai/connections/microsoft-sharepoint) Reviews ## What our customers say ## More from OneDrive - [ **OneDrive to Google Drive** Google Drive is a cloud storage solution for uploading, sharing, and collaborating on files across devices...](https://apiant.ai/connect/onedrive-to-google-drive) - [ **OneDrive to Check Cherry** Check Cherry is the all-in-one platform to manage your Photobooth, Photography Studio, Mobile DJ business...](https://apiant.ai/connect/onedrive-to-check-cherry) - [ **OneDrive to GoodAPI: Plant Trees** GoodAPI: Plant Trees is an app that allows you to seamlessly plant trees that help restore natural habits...](https://apiant.ai/connect/onedrive-to-goodapi-plant-trees) - [ **OneDrive to Google Books** REST API for searching Google's book catalog, retrieving book metadata, and managing user bookshelves.](https://apiant.ai/connect/onedrive-to-google-books) - [ **OneDrive to HubSpot** HubSpot is your all-in-one stop for all of your marketing software needs.](https://apiant.ai/connect/onedrive-to-hubspot) - [ **OneDrive to Salesforce** Salesforce is a leading enterprise customer relationship management (CRM) platform.](https://apiant.ai/connect/onedrive-to-salesforce) ## More into Microsoft SharePoint - [ **HubSpot to Microsoft SharePoint** HubSpot is your all-in-one stop for all of your marketing software needs.](https://apiant.ai/connect/hubspot-to-microsoft-sharepoint) - [ **Salesforce to Microsoft SharePoint** Salesforce is a leading enterprise customer relationship management (CRM) platform.](https://apiant.ai/connect/salesforce-to-microsoft-sharepoint) - [ **Slack to Microsoft SharePoint** Slack is a messaging platform for teams.

Any of OneDrive's 9 triggers in the catalog, including File Updated, Item Moved or Renamed, New Version Created and OneDrive File Created Trigger. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one. ### ### What can your agent do in Microsoft SharePoint when something happens in OneDrive? Any of Microsoft SharePoint's 100 actions, including Create Content Type, Create Drive Item Sharing Link, Create List Field and Create List Item By Id. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships. ### ### Can it also run from Microsoft SharePoint to OneDrive? Microsoft SharePoint has no triggers in the catalog today, so automations start in OneDrive. If you need the other direction, ask: your agent reads Microsoft SharePoint's API documentation and adds it. ### ### Do I have to build a connector for OneDrive or Microsoft SharePoint? No. Both are in the catalog with their triggers and actions. You describe the automation; your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running. ### ### Can my AI client use OneDrive and Microsoft SharePoint without building an automation? Yes. With your AI client connected to APIANT, ask it to do something in either app once and it runs that action on the spot. Ask for an automation and your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running. One connection covers both. ### ### What happens when something fails? Your agent works that out for you. It plans the failure paths along with the happy path, then tests every scenario before it ships. ### ### Is there a free plan? Yes. Every plan includes the agent, including free, and building from your own AI client spends no assistant credits.
