Overview
A connection is how you grant SkySync access to the content in your Microsoft SharePoint on-premises account. You will provide the connection information required for SkySync to connect to the platform/server. This grants SkySync access to the account so it can scan and analyze the content based on the policies you create.

SkySync only supports connections for Microsoft SharePoint on-premises versions 2013, 2016, and 2019. |
