Credential Inquiry | Connecting to Sharepoint Resources

‎01-14-2019 02:26 AM

How are you connecting to Sharepoint (eg Sharepoint folder) without having to worry about O365 password expiry. For example if password expires I would have to change/update my query.

Hi @ovetteabejuela,

 

The credential isn't stored in the queries. So we can't use a trick like parameters. Actually, if the password expired, the only thing we can do is updating it with a new one. I think the best way is keeping the password valid. But that could violate the safety policy.
