Integration Options & Capabilities

Files.com integrates with SharePoint using the Microsoft SharePoint REST APIs via HTTPS, providing secure encrypted data transmission between the two platforms.
Why Leverage Files.com's Remote Server with SharePoint?
Files.com's Remote Server Mount & Server Sync features give you the ability to:
- Mount SharePoint as a live, remote file system with immediate file availability for automations and integrations
- Push, pull, or bi-directionally sync your SharePoint content, for specific folders, file types, or on a regular cadence
- Centralized file management across ecosystems and manage content from SharePoint alongside content from other cloud services, on-prem storage, and FTP/SFTP servers—all from a single platform.
How Data Teams Integrate SharePoint and Files.com
Integrating Files.com with SharePoint creates a powerful synergy for organizations looking to streamline file management, enhance security, and improve workflow efficiency. While SharePoint excels at internal collaboration and document storage, Files.com extends its reach by making that content accessible across a wide range of secure file transfer protocols. Organizations can now deliver and receive files from partners, vendors, and external systems that rely on legacy or specialized transfer methods—without needing to access SharePoint directly.
This powerful integration enables a wide variety of use cases across teams & industries such as:
- Healthcare & Life Science: Healthcare providers store sensitive patient files in SharePoint and need to automate delivery to external labs, partners, or insurance companies without giving SharePoint access directly. By integrating Files.com, organizations can use Server Sync to push/pull HIPAA-compliant files between SharePoint or send files via SFTP/AS2.
- Broadcast & Media: Production teams store scripts, schedules, and rough cuts in SharePoint that need to be securely shared with editors, vendors, and OTT platforms. By mounting SharePoint, organizations can enjoy live file access and use features like Inboxes or Share Links to streamline uploads and approvals.
- Financial services: Teams working on compliance, audits, and financial reports often manage documents in SharePoint, requiring regulatory delivery and traceability. Files.com can automatically pull reports from SharePoint and deliver via SFTP to auditors or compliance platforms, with full audit logging and encryption.
