How to integrate Affinity with Microsoft SharePoint
Integrate Affinity with Microsoft SharePoint by contacting your Affinity CSM or email support@affinity.co asking us to unlock this integration for your account. You must be on the Premium or Enterprise Tiers (see Affinity Native Integrations).
Note: This is a uni-directional sync. It will only upload already-uploaded files from Affinity to a designated folder on Microsoft Sharepoint, not the other way around.
- Once you've done the above, click Settings on the left side of your screen.
- Click on the Integrations tab, then click on Microsoft SharePoint.
- Jump to the relevant Microsoft SharePoint integration to learn more:
Affinity Files to SharePoint Folders
For all list entries within a specific Affinity list, the files that have been uploaded to these list entries' profile pages will also sync to their own auto-created folders within a designated folder in your Microsoft SharePoint account.
- Within the Affinity Files to SharePoint Folders integration, click Select.
- Click Configure new solution.
- You will find a modal regarding Tray SharePoint (tray.io) asking for permissions. Click Accept to continue.
- Select an existing authentication method or create a new one if it's your first time.
- Select the Affinity list you'd like to sync from, then click Next. Ideally, you’d also want to have this list approved for auto-upload in your privacy settings, as we only sync files that are uploaded to Affinity, not those that are in the found in your email section.
- Note: Once set up, this integration will automatically backfill for already-uploaded files on Affinity profile pages and upload them to the designated SharePoint folder.

- Next, get the name of your Root folder, and the Filepath where you would you like to have the files be uploaded to.
- On the following screen, you would need to select the root folder, and enter your file path.
- In this example, we will select Project Affinity, Inc as the Root.
- The Sharepoint Filepath /Integration/People/ is case sensitive and requires the forward slashes in the beginning and end. The default is to the Documents folder, so there is no need to add "Documents" to the filepath.
- Finally, click Finish to complete the integration.
- Within the designated folder/filepath, an individual folder will be auto-created for each entity and contain their respective files based on the files that get uploaded to their Affinity profile pages.
