  • The Odata REST URL needs to be accessible from the machine where the Secure Agent is installed.
Does Microsoft SharePoint require Windows authentication?
Answer:
  • The connector uses HTTP based authentication from the connection screen by default.
  • It supports Windows based authentication directly.
  • You can start the service by using configured user account of Microsoft SharePoint Windows.
If the Microsoft SharePoint server is configured to use Windows authentication and User identity in Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS), then you must start the Secure Agent with Windows/AD user account. The same account which has relevant access to Microsoft SharePoint server.
