Connecting Microsoft 365

Before CloudMove can write files to a client's SharePoint or OneDrive, an admin from that tenant has to grant consent. This is a one-time operation per client.

What you'll need

• Global Administrator credentials for the client's M365 tenant (SharePoint Admin alone isn't enough — admin consent requires Global Admin)
• About 2 minutes

Connect

On the client's detail page, click Connect Microsoft 365.

You'll be redirected to Microsoft's consent page. Sign in as a Global Admin and review the permissions CloudMove is requesting. Accept.

When you return to CloudMove, the client shows a green Connected badge.

What CloudMove can do

Once connected, CloudMove can:

• List SharePoint sites and document libraries in the tenant
• List Microsoft 365 users (for OneDrive destination picking)
• Upload files to any SharePoint library or user OneDrive via the Migration API and Graph API

CloudMove cannot read tenant email, calendars, messages, or anything outside files and user directory info.

If consent fails

If the consent flow errors or the admin cancels, the client stays in a disconnected state. Click Connect Microsoft 365 again to retry. See M365 Connection Issues if you keep hitting errors.

Disconnecting

There's no "disconnect" button. If you need to revoke CloudMove's access, the admin removes the CloudMove enterprise app from the Microsoft 365 admin center (Enterprise applications → CloudMove → Delete).

Next steps

With M365 connected, you're ready to create your first project for this client.
