    About this task

    Integrations and API calls for the Microsoft SharePoint Online and Microsoft Teams external content connectors rely on a Microsoft cloud service endpoint URL that's specified as the value of the sn_ext_conn_admin.microsoft_authority_host system property.

    By default, this property's value is https://login.microsoftonline.com, the endpoint URL for the Microsoft 365 cloud. If your organization's Microsoft application tenants are in a different cloud, you need to update the system property's value to specify the appropriate endpoint URL.

    Procedure

    1. Navigate to the System Property [sys_properties] table's list view.
      1. Select All.
      2. In the Filter field, enter sys_properties.list.
      3. Press Enter.
    2. Open the record for the sn_ext_conn_admin.microsoft_authority_host system property by selecting it from the list.
      If the system prompts you to change the application scope so that you can edit the record, select the provided link.
    3. In the system property's Value field, change the existing URL to the cloud service endpoint URL for your Microsoft cloud.
      As an example, if your Microsoft application tenants are in the Microsoft 365 GCC High cloud or the Microsoft 365 DoD cloud, enter https://login.microsoftonline.us/ as the URL.
      Important:
      The URL specified as the property value must end with a trailing slash. Entering a URL without a trailing slash may cause connectivity failures in the Microsoft SharePoint Online and Microsoft Teams external content connectors.
    4. Select Update.
