Why teams connect Microsoft 365 and Sharepoint

Land the records and documents that build up in Microsoft 365 into Sharepoint as they are created, and surface Sharepoint's file details on the Microsoft 365 records that point to them, without an export job to maintain.

Microsoft 365 and Sharepoint hold different kinds of data. Microsoft 365 carries records and the activity around them — the tickets, messages, orders, or issues a team works through, often with documents attached. Sharepoint holds files and the metadata that describes them. Where the two meet is narrow but real: much of what Microsoft 365 produces has to be kept somewhere durable, and many of the files Sharepoint stores are the very documents Microsoft 365's records point to.

Stacksync syncs Groups, Mail Messages, Calendar Events, Contacts in Microsoft 365 with Lists, List items, Drive items (document libraries), Columns and content types in Sharepoint in real time. Records and attachments created in Microsoft 365 are written into Sharepoint as objects or files within seconds of being created. In the other direction, the metadata Sharepoint keeps about those files — name, location, owner, modified date — flows back onto the matching record in Microsoft 365, so people see the current document without leaving the tool. Field-level mapping controls exactly what crosses over and in which direction, so you keep a durable copy of what matters without an extract to schedule or a nightly dump that leaves the copy a day behind.

Common use cases

  • 01 Keep CRM contacts and Microsoft 365 contacts aligned in both directions.
  • 02 Sync employee records from an HR system into Entra ID users and group memberships.
  • 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 copy that outlives the tool

A continuously synced copy in Sharepoint preserves records and documents even as they age out of Microsoft 365 or get changed inside it, so history stays intact and reachable.

Feed a data lake or downstream pipeline

Structured records from Microsoft 365 land in Sharepoint as objects a data lake, search index, or processing pipeline can read, without a custom extract to build and babysit.

Archive what Microsoft 365 produces into Sharepoint

Records and events from Microsoft 365 — tickets, messages, orders, or issues — are written into Sharepoint as objects or files as they change, giving you a durable, addressable copy for retention and audit.

What you can sync between Microsoft 365 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.

Microsoft 365 objects Sharepoint objects How this pairing syncs
SharePoint Sites & Lists List items read and written like lightweight database tables. Site pages Modern site pages via /sites/{id}/pages; read page content, layout, and metadata for indexing and content governance. SharePoint Sites & Lists is specific to Microsoft 365 and Site pages to Sharepoint — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Teams Team and membership data provisioned from upstream systems. 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. Teams is specific to Microsoft 365 and Sites to Sharepoint — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Planner & To Do Tasks Task items synced with project and work-management tools. 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. Planner & To Do Tasks is specific to Microsoft 365 and Lists to Sharepoint — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Users Entra ID user accounts synced with HR and identity 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. Users is specific to Microsoft 365 and List items to Sharepoint — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Groups Microsoft 365 and security groups kept aligned with org structure and access rules. 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. Groups is specific to Microsoft 365 and Drive items (document libraries) to Sharepoint — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Mail Messages Exchange Online messages read for logging, archiving, or activity capture. 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. Mail Messages is specific to Microsoft 365 and Columns and content types to Sharepoint — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Microsoft 365 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.

Microsoft 365 Sharepoint Sub-second propagation

DetectionMicrosoft 365 notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Graph change notifications (webhooks) plus delta queries for incremental sync.

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

Sharepoint Microsoft 365 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 Microsoft 365 through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Rate-limit considerations

  • 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.
