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, Microsoft Teams (https://mycompany.sharepoint.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 Microsoft Teams account. 

You can find the URL by

  1. Logging into Microsoft Teams through a Web browser using the account you want to use to create the connection (teams.microsoft.com).

  2. Select Teams from the menu on the left side of the screen.

  3. Select the team you wish to connect to and select Files.

  4. In the top toolbar utility, select Open in SharePoint. The URL in the address bar is the URL you need to use. It will look something like "https://mycompany-my.sharepoint.com/sites/team/" where mycompany and team will be the site name of your company and the team you selected.

  5. Copy the URL through the team name (https://mycompany-my.sharepoint.com/sites/team).

  6. Paste the URL into the DryvIQ Application.

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

Features and Limitations

Platforms all have unique features and limitations. DryvIQ’s transfer engine manages these differences between platforms and allows you to configure actions based on Job Policies and Behaviors. Use the Platform Comparison tool to see how your integration platforms may interact regarding features and limitations.

Connection Pooling

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.

HTML Files

SharePoint online does not support uploading HTML files larger than 256 MB. If your migration includes HTML files that exceed this limit, the file transfer will fail, and an entry will be logged in the audit with the following message: "Unable to interpret the contents of this page because it exceeds the maximum page size of 268435456 bytes.”

...

DryvIQ verifies file and folder names to identify unsupported characters based on the platform. It then replaces Invalid characters are handled according to the Allow unsupported file names to be changed setting for the job.

...

If the setting is disabled, DryvIQ will throw an exception when it encounters a file or folder that cannot be migrated due to an unsupported character in the name.

If enabled, DyvIQ will replace invalid characters with an underscore (_) so or UTF8 encoding based on the option selected. This will allow the files and folders can to be transferred. The  The logic includes leading and trailing spaces in file and folder names. DryvIQ replaces the space rather than trimming it because trimming the space could cause duplicate file names. Adding the underscore ensures the name remains unique.

Language Translation

DryvIQ does not support translation when migrating between SharePoint sites that have different default language configurations.

Lock Events

Graph API does not support lock event detection without the use of a separate API call, which will slow down change detection. The workaround is to disable native event detection to transfer locks in each job run or to use a soft reset to transfer locks as needed.
