Supports authentication: OAuth 2.0

Register your Scalekit environment with the SharePoint connector so Scalekit handles the authentication flow and token lifecycle for you. The connection name you create will be used to identify and invoke the connection programmatically. Then complete the configuration in your application as follows:

  1. Set up auth redirects

    • In Scalekit dashboard, go to Agent Auth โ†’ Create Connection. Find SharePoint and click Create. Copy the redirect URI. It will look like https://<SCALEKIT_ENVIRONMENT_URL>/sso/v1/oauth/<CONNECTION_ID>/callback.

      Copy redirect URI from Scalekit dashboard

    • Sign into https://entra.microsoft.com and go to Microsoft Entra ID โ†’ App registrations โ†’ New registration.

    • Enter a name for your app.

    • Under Supported account types, select Accounts in any organizational directory (Any Azure AD directory - Multitenant).

    • Under Redirect URI, select Web and paste the redirect URI from step 1. Click Register.

      Register an application in Azure portal

  2. Get your client credentials

    • Go to Certificates & secrets โ†’ New client secret, set an expiry, and click Add. Copy the Value immediately.

    • From the Overview page, copy the Application (client) ID.

  3. Add credentials in Scalekit

    • In Scalekit dashboard, go to Agent Auth โ†’ Connections and open the connection you created.

    • Enter your credentials:

      Add credentials in Scalekit dashboard

    • Click Save.

Connect a userโ€™s SharePoint account and make API calls on their behalf โ€” Scalekit handles OAuth and token management automatically.

You can interact with SharePoint in two ways โ€” via direct proxy API calls or via Scalekit optimized tool calls. Scroll down to see the list of available Scalekit tools.

Proxy API Calls

import { ScalekitClient } from '@scalekit-sdk/node';
import 'dotenv/config';
const connectionName = 'sharepoint'; // get your connection name from connection configurations
const identifier = 'user_123'; // your unique user identifier
// Get your credentials from app.scalekit.com โ†’ Developers โ†’ Settings โ†’ API Credentials
const scalekit = new ScalekitClient(
process.env.SCALEKIT_ENV_URL,
process.env.SCALEKIT_CLIENT_ID,
process.env.SCALEKIT_CLIENT_SECRET
);
const actions = scalekit.actions;
// Authenticate the user
const { link } = await actions.getAuthorizationLink({
connectionName,
identifier,
});
console.log('๐Ÿ”— Authorize SharePoint:', link);
process.stdout.write('Press Enter after authorizing...');
await new Promise(r => process.stdin.once('data', r));
// Make a request via Scalekit proxy
const result = await actions.request({
connectionName,
identifier,
path: '/v1.0/me/sites',
method: 'GET',
});
console.log(result);

File operations

Download a file

Fetch file metadata via the Scalekit proxy to get a pre-authenticated download URL, then stream the file directly from Microsoftโ€™s CDN. This avoids buffering large files through the proxy and is significantly faster.

import requests
import scalekit.client, os
from dotenv import load_dotenv
load_dotenv()
connection_name = "sharepoint" # get your connection name from connection configurations
identifier = "user_123" # your unique user identifier
site_id = "<YOUR_SITE_ID>" # call GET /v1.0/sites/root to get your site ID
scalekit_client = scalekit.client.ScalekitClient(
client_id=os.getenv("SCALEKIT_CLIENT_ID"),
client_secret=os.getenv("SCALEKIT_CLIENT_SECRET"),
env_url=os.getenv("SCALEKIT_ENV_URL"),
)
filename = "report.pdf"
# Step 1: Fetch file metadata via Scalekit proxy (authenticated)
response = scalekit_client.actions.request(
connection_name=connection_name,
identifier=identifier,
path=f"/v1.0/sites/{site_id}/drive/root:/{filename}",
method="GET",
query_params={},
)
meta = response.json()
# Step 2: Stream directly from Microsoft CDN using the pre-authenticated URL
# No auth headers needed โ€” the URL is cryptographically signed and expires in ~1 hour
download_url = meta["@microsoft.graph.downloadUrl"]
with requests.get(download_url, stream=True) as r:
r.raise_for_status()
with open(filename, "wb") as f:
for chunk in r.iter_content(chunk_size=8 * 1024 * 1024): # 8 MB chunks
f.write(chunk)
print(f"Downloaded: {filename} ({os.path.getsize(filename):,} bytes)")

Upload a file

Upload a file to SharePointโ€™s Shared Documents folder. Scalekit injects the OAuth token automatically โ€” your app never handles credentials directly.

import mimetypes
import scalekit.client, os
from dotenv import load_dotenv
load_dotenv()
connection_name = "sharepoint" # get your connection name from connection configurations
identifier = "user_123" # your unique user identifier
site_id = "<YOUR_SITE_ID>" # call GET /v1.0/sites/root to get your site ID
scalekit_client = scalekit.client.ScalekitClient(
client_id=os.getenv("SCALEKIT_CLIENT_ID"),
client_secret=os.getenv("SCALEKIT_CLIENT_SECRET"),
env_url=os.getenv("SCALEKIT_ENV_URL"),
)
filename = "report.pdf"
with open(filename, "rb") as f:
file_bytes = f.read()
mime_type = mimetypes.guess_type(filename)[0] or "application/octet-stream"
response = scalekit_client.actions.request(
connection_name=connection_name,
identifier=identifier,
path=f"/v1.0/sites/{site_id}/drive/root:/{filename}:/content",
method="PUT",
query_params={},
form_data=file_bytes,
headers={"Content-Type": mime_type},
)
meta = response.json()
print(f"Uploaded: {meta['name']} โ†’ {meta['webUrl']}")
