Field | Description | Required |
|---|---|---|
Display as | Enter the display name for the connection. If you will be creating multiple connections, ensure the name readily identifies the connection. The name displays in the application, and you can use it to search for the connection and filter lists. If you do not add a display name, the connection will automatically be named using the URL. For example, OneDrive for Business (https://mycompany-my.sharepoint.com/personal/user_mycompany_onmicrosoft_com). If it will be useful for you to reference the connection by account, you should use the default name. | Optional |
URL | Enter the URL of your OneDrive for Business account. This must be the full URL. If the connection fails, verify the URL. DryvIQ cannot create the connection if the URL is incorrect. You can find the URL by logging into OneDrive for Business using the account you want to use to create the connection. The URL in the address bar is the URL you need to use. It will look something like "https://mycompany-my.sharepoint.com/personal/user_mycompany_onmicrosoft_com" (where mycompany will be the site name of your company). You must use the full URL, or the connection will fail. For example, the following URL is invalid since it is not the complete URL and will result in a failed connection: "https://companydesktop-my.sharepoint.com/personal/". | Required |
Token endpoint | This setting is rare for most Microsoft connections and can be left blank. If needed, this value will be provided by your administrator. | Optional |
Graph API endpoint | This setting is rare for most Microsoft connections and can be left blank. If needed, this value will be provided by your administrator. | Optional |
External users notifications | This indicates if you want to send notifications to external users. The default value is No, so no notifications will be sent. If you select Yes, notifications will be sent to external users when they have been granted access to content based on permissions. | Optional |
Behavior When Deleting Items | Select the type of delete DryvIQ should perform when deleting items: Permanent or Soft. Soft delete is the default delete behavior; however, Permanent is the recommended behavior. A soft delete marks items as a deleted. You can still access them to restore or permanently delete the items. A permanent delete removes the items. This delete is not reversible. | Optional |

Microsoft Office 365 connections using OAuth 2 authentication may experience bandwidth throttling from Microsoft when using connection pooling.
Delta Job Runs
After the initial transfer of an item using a Microsoft SharePoint connection, DryvIQ will leverage Microsoft’s change tracking API on delta job runs to identify changes. This results in fewer Graph API requests and shorter job execution times.

If you see “Error=Value=CobaltAllZerosDetected” errors in the logs, the file that triggered the error will not be uploaded to SharePoint online. Microsoft produces this error for files it considers to be corrupt.
Platform Item Exception Errors
DryvIQ uses a batch job (uploading multiple files and committing them to the destination asynchronously) to migrates files that do not exist to Microsoft Office 365 or OneDrive for Business connections since this is the best practice for storage providers that offer batch support. If Microsoft responds with an “item already exists” during a batch migration job, DryvIQ compares the latest set of item properties (modified, versions and number of bytes) to the item properties in the batch job. If the properties on the existing destination file do not match the properties in the batch job, DryvIQ will generate an error identifying the conflicting properties as in the example below.
| Code Block |
|---|
PlatformItemOutOfDateException: The item changed during processing. Retry the item to resolve the issue. Contact support if the problem persists. /TD_7bcd1ca33f274b0bb7a8698f99936f6b/Folder/File.txt with changed properties: timestamp - original:7/3/2024 4:09:49 PM +00:00, latest:7/3/2024 4:09:56 PM +00:00; number of bytes - original:3, latest:8; |
In the error, original is the item property in the batch job, and latest is the item property on the destination. The item will be flagged as “Retry” and will be handled like a normal retry item. After selecting the retry action (Retry, Ignore, etc.), the item should be resolved.
If the batch job and destination have the same properties, no error will be generated, and the item will be transferred.
