SharePoint Automation
Automate your SharePoint processes from a single platform
Introduction
Microsoft SharePoint is a powerful business collaboration platform. The capabilities of SharePoint, including content management, collaboration, search, and business intelligence work together to help companies quickly respond to changing business needs. For IT, in particular, SharePoint helps the team focus on and communicate about business priorities.
However, SharePoint can be difficult to navigate for many users, not to mention that maintaining your SharePoint site and constantly uploading and monitoring the status of your documents is extremely time-consuming.

Automate and SharePoint in Business
An Automate task is triggered by an email attachment delivered to a specific mailbox. The task analyzes the attachment, determines that certain criteria are met, and feeds the contents of the attachment to an ERP process. After the ERP process is completed, the data is persisted in a SQL database. An Excel report is generated, uploaded to SharePoint, and emailed to a supervisor.
Automate and SharePoint in IT
An Automate task is triggered by the presence of a new employee record in a SQL database. The task creates a new Active Directory user, a new contact in Exchange, adds the user to a group in SharePoint, and emails an IT administrator.
