Import files from SharePoint into your vaults

Distribute existing SharePoint documents directly to vaults and shareholders without downloading and re-uploading them.

Note: Before you can use this integration, your Platform Owner must complete the SharePoint admin consent step, and you need to have SharePoint connected in your Connected Apps.

Method 1 — Import into a single vault

1. Navigate to Vault Manager in the lower left hand corner of your screen, and under the Vaults tab, open the vault you want to add files to.

5. Browse the folder structure and tick the items you want to import. You can select individual files, an entire folder, or a mix of both — selecting a folder pulls in everything inside it. Click Preview when your selection is complete. Screenshot 2026-05-11 at 14.28.53

6. Back in the distribution dialog, the Uploads tab shows your imported files with a green check mark next to each. Switch to the Options tab to set the destination folder, apply labels, enable a watermark, or prevent download, and to the Message tab to write a short note to recipients, then click Distribute.

Note: Trusted Family preserves the SharePoint folder structure on import — the folders you select get re-created in the destination vault automatically.

Pro tip: Combine Watermark and Prevent download for sensitive files like financial statements or governance documents. Recipients can read the file in the platform but cannot save a clean copy.
