Integrate Microsoft OneDrive

Microsoft OneDrive is a file hosting and synchronization service operated by Microsoft as part of its web version of Microsoft Office. OneDrive saves documents, photos, and other files in the cloud, shares them with peers, and even collaborates on content. The Microsoft OneDrive connector lets you import and export assets between their OneDrive folders.

Architecture and authentication

The OneDrive connector lets you authenticate with Microsoft through OAuth to browse and select files to import to the Optimizely Content Marketing Platform (CMP) or export from CMP to their OneDrive folders. Connect your account to OneDrive folders. The following image shows the processes between the platforms.

Permissions granted to the integration for each user are as follows:

• Email – View the user's email address
• Files.ReadWrite – Have full access to user files
• offline_access – Maintain access to data you have given access to
• profile – View the user's basic profile
• User.Read – Sign in and read user profile
