General managed connector FAQs
The answers in Managed connector FAQs apply to all managed connectors in Lakeflow Connect. Keep reading for connector-specific FAQs.
How does the connector handle updates in SharePoint?
On subsequent pipeline runs, the connector only re-ingests files that have been updated. It doesn't incrementally update within those files (for example, only the Excel data that's been updated within a specific file).
Which APIs does the connector use?
The connector uses the Microsoft Graph API.
Does the refresh token expire?
Yes. By default, the refresh token expires after 90 days. This is true for all supported authentication methods.
Is M2M authentication supported?
Important
OAuth Machine-to-Machine (M2M) authentication for the SharePoint connector is in Public Preview.
Yes. The connector supports both delegated access (U2M OAuth) and app-only access (M2M OAuth). For setup instructions, see Configure OAuth M2M for Microsoft SharePoint ingestion.
