Troubleshooting OneDrive Integrations

OneDrive connection and connectivity issues can be caused by permission and authentication issues. When using OneDrive for Business, also consult the Troubleshooting SharePoint article, as SharePoint is used as its backend system.

Incorrect OneDrive Access Permissions

When connecting to OneDrive, Files.com will only be able to access those OneDrive resources that have been granted to the credentials being used to connect.

Make sure that the OneDrive account that is being used to authenticate for the Remote Server connection has been granted permission to access the required resources. Check that the OneDrive permissions for the account are correct. Log in directly to OneDrive with the same account and verify that you can access the required resources. Contact your OneDrive administrator if you cannot access the required resources successfully.
