  1. Give your storage a name so you can easily identify it later.
  2. Enter the Site URL associated with the Site you want to integrate from you Sharepoint Server.
  3. Enter the domain and username of the user you want to log in as. This should be in the form DOMAIN/USERNAME.
  4. Enter the password associated with the user account you are logging in as.
  5. Optionally, enter the name of a Document Library. If this field contains a valid value, then only the files from this specific document library will be processed. If no value is entered here, files from all public document libraries belonging to the site will be processed.
  6. If the Document Library field has a value, the Folder Location field will appear. Optionally, you can enter the name of a Folder that is part of the input document library. If this field contains a valid value, then only the files from this folder inside the document library will be processed.

Known Limitation: there is a heavy limitation in regards to the number of concurrent requests a user can make to the SharePoint Server. Thus, when doing remediation actions with a large number of files, the heavy throttling will cause the operations to have to wait for the SharePoint Server to free up resources and will result in a considerably long scanning time.
