It provides access to OneDrive Personal or OneDrive for Business drives and SharePoint Online or SharePoint Server 2016 document libraries.  More or less, all you have to do is sync Grooper and OneDrive by logging in using your OneDrive credentials and you can import from and export to your OneDrive folders.  OneDrive drives and SharePoint libraries can be individually imported as a CMIS Repository.  Each will expose themselves as hierarchical file system (HFS), where folders and files are represented by simple object types.  As such, this binding is suitable for Unmapped rather than Mapped Export.  You can still export metadata as a "buddy file" adjusting the Metadata Export property in the Unmapped Export Settings.

While you are not able to export all a document's metadata like you can when connecting to a CMIS compliant system, you can still utilize the [[CMIS Export#Mapped Export|Mapped Export]] provider to do things like change the filename to a data model field.  You can also create foldering and map their names to variables in a content model.
 
All those mappings would be assigned on the "Content Types" of your repository.

You cannot, however, export a metadata file using [[CMIS Export#Mapped Export]]|Mapped Export]].  If you also want to export an XML document, for example, you would need to add a second Document Export step to your Batch process, use the [[CMIS Export#Unmapped Export|Unmapped Export]] provider, and adjust the "Metadata Export" settings in Export Settings.

OneDrive is a connection option for cloud CMIS Connections. It connects Grooper to Microsoft OneDrive cloud services for import and export operations.

It provides access to OneDrive Personal or OneDrive for Business drives and SharePoint Online or SharePoint Server 2016 document libraries. More or less, all you have to do is sync Grooper and OneDrive by logging in using your OneDrive credentials and you can import from and export to your OneDrive folders. OneDrive drives and SharePoint libraries can be individually imported as a CMIS Repository. Each will expose themselves as hierarchical file system (HFS), where folders and files are represented by simple object types. As such, this binding is suitable for Unmapped rather than Mapped Export. You can still export metadata as a "buddy file" adjusting the Metadata Export property in the Unmapped Export Settings.

Version Differences

When the OneDrive binding was added in version 2.72, it did not support full text querying. Full text searching is now possible as of Grooper version 2023.

  • Use the CONTAINS() predicate in a CMIS Query to search document content in a One Drive repository based on a search string.
