Hi  All,

Need your help for below issue.

We are working on bringing external content from SharePoint using "SharePoint Online Search Connector".

We are able to get content of site, drive, permissions and indexing also completed.
In index file flow its showing records are being created in "sn_sp_con_sharepoint_external_searchā€ by ingest API but when we go table its empty.

Account is admin at both SharePoint and ServiceNow.

Is there any permission issue with this table even tried to create manually records in this table after submission it shows "Records not found".

Hi @Vineet Yadav1 an external content schema table doesn't store external document content in the database. Instead, its columns serve as a map of AI Search index fields to populate when you index content from external data sources.

Hi Shamus,

Thanks for sharing information.

Got the information we cannot view any records in SharePoint connector schema table but it will work as per user permission from SharePoint site in Portal

One more information need like as of now SharePoint connectors are configured per site like site/company but if need to configure at SharePoint root level is it possible ?

  


Here is some additional information on creating a SharePoint Graph Root Site subscription connection
