SharePoint Permissions Setup

When connecting to SharePoint or OneDrive for Business, if you get the “Need admin approval,” you need to configure your Azure Active Directory to allow users to consent data access to the app.

Method 1: Connect the app once

Open the Team Files app and connect a SharePoint.
Sign in as a Microsoft Office 365 admin to connect the app.

Method 2: Allow users to register applications

As a Microsoft Office 365 admin, access your Azure Active Directory.
Set “Users can register applications” to Yes.

3. Set “Users can consent to apps accessing company data on their behalf” to Yes. If this is not enabled, the users won’t be able to use Team Files on Jira or Confluence.

Team Files uses the following permissions on behalf of the user to make the files and folders accessible on Jira and Confluence via OAuth 2.0.
