SharePoint
Available from connector 2.112.
What Claude can do
- Find a site
- Read its lists and their items
- Browse its document libraries
- Read an Excel workbook
Read-only. Work or school account only. The text of a Word or PDF file is not read.
Everything the service returns is coded before it reaches Claude.
Before you start
- A Microsoft account — work or school.
- In some organisations an administrator must consent the first time. If the Microsoft page says “Need admin approval”, forward that page to them.
Set up
- Hidden Tokens dashboard → Connectors.
- On the SharePoint row, click Enable.
- Click Sign in: the screen shows a code and an Open the page button.
- On the Microsoft page, enter the code, choose your account and accept. Microsoft only asks for this connector’s permissions.
- Click Test. The status turns to “Ready”.
Each Microsoft connector (Outlook, OneDrive, SharePoint, Teams) has its own sign-in: enabling a second one asks you to sign in again, and removing one leaves the others untouched.
Try it in Claude
Find the finance team’s SharePoint site and list its libraries.
Claude should use a sharepoint__… tool and answer with codes. To get the real values back in a text, ask Hidden Tokens to decode it: they come back on your computer, not in the chat.
Switch off the original connector
In Claude, Settings → Connectors and Extensions: switch off SharePoint / Microsoft 365. Otherwise the AI can go through it, in clear.
Limits
