This video shows you how to integrate with SharePoint Lists. You’ll learn how to: - Set up a Data Source
Data sources, also known as "Lookups", are external sources of data that you upload or connect to TrueContext. You can reference this data in a form to populate answers or answer options. Data sources save typing, reduce errors, and make it easy to provide mobile users with only the relevant, most current data. to fetch data from a SharePoint List. - Set up a Repeatable Destination
A Repeatable Destination is a TrueContext Data Destination that sends data from a Repeatable Section to a field-based, third-party system. to send data from a Repeatable Section
A Repeatable Section is a subform that contains a set of related questions. The data captured is “repeating”, because the field user can complete the same subform more than once, which creates multiple entries. to the same SharePoint list. ### Microsoft 365 Cookbook Get “recipes” for frequently used Microsoft 365 Integration procedures. - [Send Data from a Repeatable Section to a SharePoint List](../Microsoft/Recipe_SharePointListRepeatableDestination.md) ### Connections
A Connection is an integration point that's used to link a TrueContext Data Source or Data Destination to an external service to import or export data. Data Destinations and Data Sources that share the same external service can also share the same Connection. Connections use your login credentials to authorize TrueContext to send and receive data. We recommend that you use the credentials for a dedicated Integration user account. This ensures that TrueContext Admin users and users with “Can Create” permissions can only access the data that they need. You can set up a [Microsoft 365 Connection](../Published/217500738_MicrosoftOffice365BusinessConnection.md) to integrate with Microsoft 365: Forms & Integrations
Integration refers to secure communication and data sharing between TrueContext and a third-party system, such as Salesforce or ServiceMax. Connections, Data Sources, Data Destinations, and App-to-App calls and callbacks can be used as part of an integration solution. > Connections > CREATE CONNECTION > Microsoft 365 Connection The system opens a new **Microsoft 365 Connection**. Enter your Microsoft 365 credentials to authorize the connection. ### SharePoint Integration TrueContext supports a full integration with SharePoint.
