Microsoft SharePoint

Summary

 

Legito add-on for Microsoft SharePoint automatically uploads Word and/or PDF documents generated in the Legito Workspace to SharePoint.

Legito add-on for Microsoft SharePoint is not a stand-alone application, but an extension of the Legito Workspace which allows for easy and smooth integration between Legito and Microsoft SharePoint accounts.


End User Experience

 

The integration between Legito and Microsoft SharePoint works in the background. There are no special actions for end users to perform to upload generated documents to SharePoint.

Once the user completes a defined triggering action (typically by clicking the Save button in Legito Document Editor), the document(s) in the defined format (Word, PDF, etc) are uploaded to a defined folder in SharePoint.
