What connects

What you can do with SharePoint

From the full integrations list
01

Keep SharePoint as your document store

Connect your existing SharePoint files to the client work in AccountKit, with underlying document permissions respected.

02

Connect the supporting record

Use the SharePoint connection when bringing client documents into your AccountKit document-management workflow.

In practice

Make SharePoint part of the client workflow

Start with a client whose documents your team knows well. Connect the document location, check the team’s access and confirm how those files support the work in AccountKit.

Connection setup

Bring SharePoint into your AccountKit setup

Start with the accounts and permissions, then test the work your team needs to do.

  1. 01

    Check your SharePoint access

    Have the person who manages your SharePoint account confirm the access and permissions available for the connection.

  2. 02

    Confirm the AccountKit features you need

    Check your plan and connection requirements against the work you want SharePoint to support.

  3. 03

    Test with one client before rolling out

    Connect the accounts with your administrator, test the intended workflow and confirm where the team should maintain the source record.

Before you connect

Does AccountKit bypass SharePoint permissions?

No. AccountKit’s document-management guide specifically explains that the connected DMS permissions still apply, including SharePoint restrictions.

Can we see SharePoint with AccountKit before deciding?

Book an AccountKit demo and mention SharePoint. Bring a real example of the work you want to connect so the team can confirm the setup, supported actions and plan requirements for your firm.
