SharePoint Online Connector for SSISSharePoint Connector can be used to read, write data in SharePoint Online List / Document Library, perform file operations such as upload, download, create, move, delete, rename in a few clicks! In this article you will learn how to quickly and efficiently integrate SharePoint Online data in SSIS without coding. We will use high-performance SharePoint Online Connector to easily connect to SharePoint Online and then access the data inside SSIS. Let's follow the steps below to see how we can accomplish that! SharePoint Online Connector for SSIS is based on ZappySys API Connector Framework which is a part of SSIS PowerPack. It is a collection of high-performance SSIS connectors that enable you to integrate data with virtually any data provider supported by SSIS, including SQL Server. SSIS PowerPack supports various file formats, sources and destinations, including REST/SOAP API, SFTP/FTP, storage services, and plain files, to mention a few (if you are new to SSIS and SSIS PowerPack, find out more on how to use them). |

Use delegated access (User Credentials) whenever you want to let a signed-in user work with their own resources or resources they can access. Whether it's an admin setting up policies for their entire organization or a user deleting an email in their inbox, all scenarios involving user actions should use delegated access. [API reference]
Steps how to get and use SharePoint Online credentials
Follow these simple steps below to create Microsoft Entra ID application with delegated access:
WARNING: If you are planning to automate processes, we recommend that you use a Application Credentials authentication method. In case, you still need to use User Credentials, then make sure you use a system/generic account (e.g.automation@my-company.com
). When you use a personal account which is tied to a specific employee profile and that employee leaves the company, the token may become invalid and any automated processes using that token will start to fail.- Navigate to the Azure Portal and log in using your credentials.
- Access Microsoft Entra ID.
-
Register a new application by going to App registrations and clicking on New registration button:
INFO: Find more information on how to register an application in Graph API reference. -
When configuration window opens, configure these fields:
-

Use it when: 1. The application needs to run in an automated way, without user input (for example, a daily script that checks emails from certain contacts and sends automated responses). 2. The application needs to access resources belonging to multiple different users (for example, a backup or data loss prevention app might need to retrieve messages from many different chat channels, each with different participants). 3. You find yourself tempted to store credentials locally and allow the app to sign in 'as' the user or admin. [API reference]

To use Certificate-Based Authentication Setup please follow the steps listed in [Application Credentials] authentication and once done come back here to finish next stsps.This guide walks you through setting up a certificate-based authentication flow for Microsoft Graph or other Azure AD protected APIs using client credentials and a JWT.
Step 1: Generate a Self-Signed Certificate
You can use OpenSSL or any other way to generate Certificate file but make it simple below example uses PowerShell. Open PowerShell and execute code listed in below steps.# Run this in PowerShell #Change .AddYears(1) to desired number. By default it expires certificate in one year as per below code. $cert = New-SelfSignedCertificate ` -Subject "CN=MyClientAppCert" ` -KeySpec Signature ` -KeyExportPolicy Exportable ` -KeyLength 2048 ` -CertStoreLocation "Cert:\CurrentUser\My" ` -KeyAlgorithm RSA ` -HashAlgorithm SHA256 ` -NotAfter (Get-Date).AddYears(1) ` -Provider "Microsoft Enhanced RSA and AES Cryptographic Provider" # Export private key (.pfx) - Keep this with you to make API calls (SECRET KEY - DONOT SHARE) $pfxPath = "$env:USERPROFILE\Desktop\private_key.pfx" $pwd = ConvertTo-SecureString -String "yourStrongPassword123" -Force -AsPlainText Export-PfxCertificate -Cert $cert -FilePath $pfxPath -Password $pwd # Export public certificate (.cer) - UPLOAD this to Azure Portal $cerPath = "$env:USERPROFILE\Desktop\public_key.cer" Export-Certificate -Cert $cert -FilePath $cerPath
Step 2: Register or Configure an App in Azure AD
- Go to https://portal.azure.com
- Navigate to Azure Active Directory > App registrations
- Click + New registration or open an existing app
- Copy the Application (client) ID and Directory (tenant) ID
Step 3: Upload the Certificate
- In your App Registration, go to Certificates & secrets
- Under Certificates, click Upload certificate
- Select the
.cer
file (public certificate) - Click Add
Step 4: Grant API Permissions
- Go to the API permissions tab
- Click Add a permission
- Select Microsoft Graph (or another API)
- Choose Application permissions
- Add scopes such as:
-
Sites.Read.All
-
Sites.ReadWrite.All
-
Files.Read.All
-
Files.ReadWrite.All
-
email
-
offline_access
-
openid
-
profile
-
User.Read
-
- Click Grant admin consent (requires admin)
Step 5: Use PFX file
Once both files generated perform the following steps to use PFX file., , Use the Certificate file (*.pfx) Now its time to use pfx file generated in the previous step. PFX file contains private key and public key both.- On ZappySys Connection UI Go to
Certificate Tab - Change Storage Mode to Local PFX File (or you can Import PFX file in Certificate Storage - User Store / Machine Store and use that way)
- Supply the pfx file path or select certificate from Local Certificate Store if you imported that way in earlier step
- Supply the certificate password (same password used in earlier PowerShell script)
- Test connection see everything is good

Steps how to get and use SharePoint Online credentials
To use Certificate-Based Authentication Setup please follow the steps listed in [Application Credentials] authentication and once done come back here to finish next stsps.This guide walks you through setting up a certificate-based authentication flow for Microsoft Graph or other Azure AD protected APIs using client credentials and a JWT.
Step 1: Generate a Self-Signed Certificate
You can use OpenSSL or any other way to generate Certificate file but make it simple below example uses PowerShell. Open PowerShell and execute code listed in below steps.# Run this in PowerShell #Change .AddYears(1) to desired number. By default it expires certificate in one year as per below code. $cert = New-SelfSignedCertificate ` -Subject "CN=MyClientAppCert" ` -KeySpec Signature ` -KeyExportPolicy Exportable ` -KeyLength 2048 ` -CertStoreLocation "Cert:\CurrentUser\My" ` -KeyAlgorithm RSA ` -HashAlgorithm SHA256 ` -NotAfter (Get-Date).AddYears(1) ` -Provider "Microsoft Enhanced RSA and AES Cryptographic Provider" # Export private key (.pfx) - Keep this with you to make API calls (SECRET KEY - DONOT SHARE) $pfxPath = "$env:USERPROFILE\Desktop\private_key.pfx" $pwd = ConvertTo-SecureString -String "yourStrongPassword123" -Force -AsPlainText Export-PfxCertificate -Cert $cert -FilePath $pfxPath -Password $pwd # Export public certificate (.cer) - UPLOAD this to Azure Portal $cerPath = "$env:USERPROFILE\Desktop\public_key.cer" Export-Certificate -Cert $cert -FilePath $cerPath
Step 2: Register or Configure an App in Azure AD
- Go to https://portal.azure.com
- Navigate to Azure Active Directory > App registrations
- Click + New registration or open an existing app
- Copy the Application (client) ID and Directory (tenant) ID
Step 3: Upload the Certificate
- In your App Registration, go to Certificates & secrets
- Under Certificates, click Upload certificate
- Select the
.cer
file (public certificate) - Click Add
Step 4: Grant API Permissions
- Go to the API permissions tab
- Click Add a permission
- Select Microsoft Graph (or another API)
- Choose Application permissions
- Add scopes such as:
-
Sites.Read.All
-
Sites.ReadWrite.All
-
Files.Read.All
-
Files.ReadWrite.All
-
email
-
offline_access
-
openid
-
profile
-
User.Read
-
- Click Grant admin consent (requires admin)
Step 5: Use PFX file
Once both files generated perform the following steps to use PFX file., , Use the Certificate file (*.pfx) Now its time to use pfx file generated in the previous step. PFX file contains private key and public key both.- On ZappySys Connection UI Go to
Certificate Tab - Change Storage Mode to Local PFX File (or you can Import PFX file in Certificate Storage - User Store / Machine Store and use that way)
- Supply the pfx file path or select certificate from Local Certificate Store if you imported that way in earlier step
- Supply the certificate password (same password used in earlier PowerShell script)
- Test connection see everything is good

In a few clicks we configured the SharePoint Online API call using ZappySys SharePoint Online Connector
Load SharePoint Online data into SQL Server using Upsert Destination (Insert or Update)
Once you configured the data source, you can load SharePoint Online data into SQL Server using Upsert Destination.
Upsert Destination can merge or synchronize source data with the target table. It supports Microsoft SQL Server, PostgreSQL, and Redshift databases as targets. Upsert Destination also supports very fast
bulk upsert
operation along withbulk delete
.Upsert operation - a database operation which performs
INSERT
orUPDATE
SQL commands based on record's existence condition in the target table. Itinserts records that don't have matching records in the target table orupdates them, if they do, by matching them bykey columns.Upsert Destination supports
INSERT
,UPDATE
, andDELETE
operations, so it is similar to SQL Server'sMERGE
command, except it can be used directly in SSIS package.-
From the SSIS Toolbox drag-and-drop Upsert Destination component onto the Data Flow designer background.
-
Connect your SSIS source component to Upsert Destination.
-
Double-click on Upsert Destination component to open configuration window.
-
Start by selecting the Action from the list.
-
Next, select the desired target connection or create one by clicking <New [provider] Connection> menu item from the Target Connection dropdown.
-
Then select a table from the Target Table list or click New button to create a new table based on the source columns.
-
Continue by checking Insert and Update options according to your scenario (e.g. if Update option is unchecked, no updates will be made).
-
Finally, click Map All button to map all columns and then select the Key columns to match the columns on:
-
Click OK to save the configuration.
-
Run the package and SharePoint Online data will be merged with the target table in SQL Server, PostgreSQL, or Redshift:
-
Done!
Deploy and schedule SSIS package
After you are done creating SSIS package, most likely, you want to deploy it to SQL Server Catalog and run it periodically. Just follow the instructions in this article:
Running SSIS package in Azure Data Factory (ADF)
To use SSIS PowerPack in ADF, you must first prepare Azure-SSIS Integration Runtime. Follow this link for detailed instructions:
