OneDrive

Monitor your OneDrive cloud storage for shared files, document changes, and pending comments.

Quick Setup

OneDrive uses the same Microsoft OAuth as Outlook, Teams, and SharePoint. If you've already connected one, OneDrive uses the same Microsoft app credentials.

  1. In Phyllax → Settings → scroll to Microsoft OAuth → confirm Client ID, Client Secret, Tenant ID are filled in (see Outlook setup for the full walkthrough)
  2. In Phyllax → Integrations → OneDrive → click Connect
  3. Browser opens → sign in with your Microsoft account → grant permissions
  4. Done

One app, four integrations

The Microsoft OAuth app you register covers Outlook, Teams, OneDrive, and SharePoint. You don't register a separate app for each.

Required Credentials

Same as other Microsoft integrations — set once at the Microsoft OAuth section in Settings:

FieldMicrosoft Portal location
Client IDApp registrations → Your app → Application (client) ID
Client SecretApp registrations → Your app → Certificates & secrets
Tenant IDApp registrations → Your app → Directory (tenant) ID (or common for multi-tenant)

Required Graph API permission (Delegated): Files.Read — minimum, or Files.ReadWrite if you want write access.

Troubleshooting

"Insufficient privileges" on connect

The OAuth app is missing required Graph permissions. Add Files.Read (and Files.ReadWrite if needed) under API Permissions, then click "Grant admin consent" for org accounts.

Files don't appear after connect

Files you own are in your OneDrive. Files in a Teams channel are technically SharePoint — use the SharePoint integration for those.
