Why teams connect Firebase and Sharepoint

Keep Firebase and Sharepoint in step: a row in Firebase for every file in Sharepoint, with names, paths, metadata, and status staying consistent in real time, in both directions.

A database holds structured records; a storage system holds the files those records depend on, such as contracts, images, exports, uploads, and documents. The two describe the same things from opposite sides: a row in Firebase says a file exists and carries its name, location, and status, while Sharepoint holds the bytes. Linked only by a hand-kept path or a one-off script, the two drift the moment a file is renamed, moved, or deleted and the record still points at where it used to be.

Stacksync syncs Firestore Documents, Subcollections, Realtime Database Nodes, Authentication Users in Firebase with Lists, List items, Drive items (document libraries), Columns and content types in Sharepoint bi-directionally and in real time. File attributes, including name, path or object key, size, type, modified time, owner, and tags or custom properties, map field by field to columns on the matching row, and a change on either side shows up on the other within seconds. New files appear as rows, metadata edits travel in the direction you choose, and deletes stay consistent, with conflict rules you set in place of nightly reconciliation scripts.

Common use cases

  • 01 Replace one-off Cloud Functions export code with managed, continuous sync.
  • 02 Sync Firestore user and account documents into a CRM so go-to-market teams see live product data.
  • 03 Sync list columns and content types so database fields map onto SharePoint list fields and schema stays aligned as either side changes.
  • 04 Provision site and item permissions and sharing links from an IdP or access-management system so SharePoint access follows onboarding and offboarding.

Common sync patterns

A landing zone for incoming files

Files that arrive in a folder or bucket in Sharepoint become rows in Firebase as they land, so a database-driven process can pick them up without polling the storage system's API.

Continuous archival to file storage

Rows from Firebase are written out to Sharepoint as files on a schedule or as they change, giving a durable, low-cost copy for backup, compliance, or a data lake, without a custom export job to maintain.

A queryable index of the file store

Every file or object in Sharepoint shows up as a row in Firebase, with its name, folder or key, size, type, and modified date as columns, so the contents of the store can be listed, filtered, and joined like any other table.

What you can sync between Firebase and Sharepoint

Representative objects on each side — any object or custom field can map to any target. Schemas are auto-detected; types are converted between the two systems.

Firebase objects Sharepoint objects How this pairing syncs
Cloud Storage Objects Files referenced from documents; usually synced as metadata plus URLs. Site pages Modern site pages via /sites/{id}/pages; read page content, layout, and metadata for indexing and content governance. Cloud Storage Objects is specific to Firebase and Site pages to Sharepoint — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Cloud Functions Triggers Server-side hooks that fire on document changes and can push updates outward. Sites SharePoint site collections and subsites via /sites; read site properties and discover the document libraries (drives) and lists each site contains, addressed by hostname and site path or site ID. Cloud Functions Triggers is specific to Firebase and Sites to Sharepoint — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Firestore Collections Top-level groupings of documents that a sync maps to tables or SaaS objects. Lists Custom lists and libraries via /sites/{id}/lists; create and read lists along with their columns and content types so a target system can mirror or provision list definitions. Firestore Collections is specific to Firebase and Lists to Sharepoint — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Firestore Documents Schemaless JSON-like records, the primary unit synced to and from external systems. List items Rows in a SharePoint list via /lists/{id}/items with a fields facet of column values; full create, read, update, and delete, synced two-way with database rows. Firestore Documents is specific to Firebase and List items to Sharepoint — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Subcollections Nested collections under documents, typically flattened into related tables during sync. Drive items (document libraries) Files and folders in a library's drive via /drives and /drive/root; upload, download, move, delete, and read per-item metadata, synced two-way with a store. Subcollections is specific to Firebase and Drive items (document libraries) to Sharepoint — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Realtime Database Nodes JSON tree paths in the older Realtime Database, synced by path. Columns and content types Field definitions and content types on a site or list; read the schema and create columns so database fields map cleanly onto SharePoint list fields. Realtime Database Nodes is specific to Firebase and Columns and content types to Sharepoint — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Firebase and Sharepoint

Each direction of the sync is driven by what the source system can signal and what the destination accepts — detection, delivery, and expected latency below.

Firebase Sharepoint Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Firebase for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Real-time snapshot listeners on Firestore queries and Cloud Functions triggers on document changes.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Sharepoint through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Sharepoint Firebase Sub-second propagation

DetectionSharepoint notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Delta query (pull) tracks created, updated, and deleted list items (/lists/{id}/items/delta) and drive items (/drives/{id}/root/delta) since the last.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Firebase through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Firebase: Subject to Firestore's documented operation quotas and per-document write throughput limits.
  • Sharepoint: SharePoint Online throttles per app, returning HTTP 429 (or 503) with a Retry-After header in seconds and IETF RateLimit-Limit, RateLimit-Remaining, and RateLimit-Reset headers; throttled requests still count toward limits, so clients honor the greater of Retry-After and RateLimit-Reset with exponential backoff.

Sharepoint

Integration surface
Microsoft Graph REST API (graph.microsoft.com/v1.0 and beta) covering SharePoint sites, lists, list items, columns, content types, and document-library drives and drive items; plus the classic SharePoint REST API (_api/web) and CSOM. Supports Graph JSON $batch (up to 20 requests per call).
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 via the Microsoft identity platform (Microsoft Entra ID). An app registration holds delegated or application (app-only) scopes such as Sites.Read.All, Sites.ReadWrite.All, Sites.Selected, Sites.Manage.All, or Sites.FullControl.All, plus Files.ReadWrite.All for drive content; application permissions require tenant admin consent.
Change detection
Delta query (pull) tracks created, updated, and deleted list items (/lists/{id}/items/delta) and drive items (/drives/{id}/root/delta) since the last deltaLink; change-notification subscriptions (push webhooks) POST near-real-time notifications for list and drive/root changes to a notification URL and must be renewed before they expire. Classic SharePoint list webhooks are also available.
