Cloud Connector - Sharepoint

Connect SharePoint to Dmax by registering an Azure application and configuring a cloud connector.

Create an Azure Application

1. Open the Azure App Registrations page.

2. Click New Registration.
3. Enter a display name, select Single tenant, and click Register.

4. Open the application you just registered.

📋

Copy the Application (client) ID and Directory (tenant) ID from the overview page — you'll need both when configuring the Dmax connector.

5. Go to Certificates & secrets and select the Certificates tab.
6. Generate a new certificate and key using OpenSSL:

openssl req -x509 -sha256 -nodes -days 365 -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout server.key -out server.crt

7. Upload the server.crt certificate to the Azure app.

8. Go to API permissions and add the SharePoint permission Sites.ReadWrite.All.

9. Click Grant admin consent to activate the permission.

Configure the Dmax Cloud Connector

1. In Dmax, go to Connectors > Cloud and click New Cloud Connector.

2. Enter a name and specify the folder you want to monitor or upload to.

3. Select SharePoint as the connector type.

4. Fill in the SharePoint connection details:

5. Convert the certificate to .pfx format (required by Dmax):

openssl pkcs12 -export -out certificate.pfx -inkey server.key -in server.crt -legacy

6. Upload the certificate.pfx file and enter the password you set during conversion.
7. Click Test Now to verify the connection.

Once the test succeeds, the SharePoint connector is ready to use in your policies.
