Overview

SharePoint is a site or page builder as part of Microsoft 365 offerings. It allows you to create a purpose build site that is accessible by certain groups within your organisation. Here is an example:

If you are using SharePoint and Microsoft 365 in general there are a few things that you can do to integrate with Claromentis.

1. Buttons to SharePoint Sites

You can't embed the SharePoint site directly in Pages because Microsoft does not allow it.

As a workaround you can create a collection of Intranet Buttons to access sites built in SharePoint.

Tips: Set the new button to open in a new window so that users can navigate back easily to the Intranet

Here is an example of a Page within Claromentis with a couple of buttons to SharePoint Sites.

2. Integrate with the menu

Here is an example:

Tips: Add unique emoji to help users differentiate between internal links and link that takes them to SharePoint sites.
