Connecting OneDrive
Sync contracts from Microsoft OneDrive to DealView. Set up automatic import from your cloud storage.
Connect Microsoft OneDrive to sync contracts automatically to DealView.
Prerequisites
Before connecting:
- Microsoft 365 or personal Microsoft account
- OneDrive access with contracts to sync
- Admin permission in your DealView workspace
Connecting OneDrive
- Go to Settings → Integrations
- Find Microsoft OneDrive and click Connect
- Sign in to your Microsoft account
- Grant DealView permission to access OneDrive
- Click Accept to complete the connection
DealView requests read-only access. We can only view files you select for syncing, not modify your OneDrive.
Selecting Folders
After connecting:
- Click Configure on the OneDrive integration
- Browse your OneDrive folders
- Check folders containing contracts
- Click Save
SharePoint Integration
OneDrive for Business includes SharePoint access:
- Team sites and shared libraries are visible
- Select SharePoint folders just like OneDrive folders
- Permissions from SharePoint are respected
You can only sync SharePoint folders you have access to in Microsoft 365.
Sync Settings
Configure sync behavior:
| Setting | Options |
|---|---|
| Auto-sync | Enabled/Disabled |
| Frequency | Every 15 min, hourly, daily |
| File Types | PDF, DOCX, DOC, TXT |
| Include Subfolders | Yes/No |
How Sync Works
- Initial sync - All existing files are imported
- Ongoing sync - New/changed files sync automatically
- Deleted files - Stay in DealView (audit trail)
Multiple Microsoft Accounts
Connect multiple accounts if needed:
- Complete first connection
- Click Add Another Account
- Sign in with different credentials
- Configure separate folders
Each account's folders are labeled with the account name.
Handling Shared Files
Files shared with you appear in:
- Shared with me folder
- Team OneDrive folders
- SharePoint document libraries
These can be selected for sync like any other folder.
Troubleshooting
Connection failed?
- Ensure you're signing into the correct account
- Try in an incognito browser window
- Check Microsoft 365 admin hasn't blocked third-party apps
Files not syncing?
- Verify folders are selected in configuration
- Check file types are supported
- Wait for next sync interval
Missing recent files?
- Sync may have a delay (up to sync frequency)
- Trigger manual sync in integration settings
Disconnecting
To remove the connection:
- Go to Settings → Integrations
- Click Disconnect on OneDrive
- Confirm disconnection
Your Microsoft account permissions are revoked. Previously synced contracts remain in DealView.
Security
Your OneDrive connection is secured by:
- OAuth 2.0 authentication
- Encrypted token storage
- Read-only access
- Revocable at any time
