SharePoint
Microsoft's collaboration and document-management platform tightly integrated with Microsoft 365 and OneDrive.
Definition
SharePoint provides team sites, document libraries, lists, and intranet pages for organisations on Microsoft 365. Files live on OneDrive backing storage; permissions follow Microsoft Entra ID groups. Automation touches SharePoint via Microsoft Graph for file operations and via Power Automate for low-code workflows tied to list items and document events.
