Get to SharePoint from an Office Application

Maybe you've heard about connecting to SharePoint from your favorite Office applications but you're not sure how it works.  Or maybe you don't know about this capability.

Inspired by a training video that showed how to connect SharePoint libraries to Office, this blog post - created by our counterparts in the SharePoint team, steps through the process for 4 use cases, including:

  • Updating a SharePoint library document from an Office application
  • Sharing or publishing a new document from an Office application to a SharePoint site library.
  • Inserting images, videos, and audio files from a SharePoint Asset Library into Office documents. ​
