This question concerns the relationship (if any) between Salesforce Groups, and SharePoint Team Sites (or whatever the SharePoint equivalent is.
If I want to restrict access to files that are stored in Salesforce, I currently do that by associating the files to a private Chatter group - a simple and intuitive solution. I am not a SharePoint expert by any means, but I understand that the equivalent on there is Team Sites. A Team Site can have restricted access to files in a similar way I understand.
When using Files Connect, if I want to reproduce this restriction - lets say for the files associated with a Chatter Group 'Senior Managers', do I have reproduce that group as a SP Team Site (or similar), or is there some way that Files Connect can manage these access rights?
Hi @Mike Peppou, yes, this is correct. You could create a SharePoint site (Teamsite or otherwise), and add an active directory group to the site (such as Senior Managers). In this way, all of the right people will be members of the site by virtue of being added to the correct A/D group. Then just manage the users in Chatter the same as before. Perhaps @Laurent Kubaski can chime in.
