Authenticate EUM SharePoint API Connection - EUM V6 and V7

|
Published

For EUM to be able to interact successfully with the EUM Config Site, which is a SharePoint site, you will need to set up a Member type of user in your Entra ID and give it Member access to the EUM Config Site. This could be a Service Account, and should not have any elevated access other than the Member access to the EUM Config Site.

After the user account is created, follow these steps:

  1. Login to the Azure Portal and go to the EUM Resource Group.
  2. If your EUM is hosted by Envision IT, we will provide you with the link to the API Connector, as well as the needed access. Login to the link with your email address, as this is the account we would have invited into our tenant.
  3. Click on the "sharepointonline" API Connection.

  8. Click Save.
  9. Navigate to the EUM Config SharePoint Site and give the account Member access.
