The EmpowerID Sharepoint Online microservice is an enterprise-scale, high-security product that can be run on premise or as Software-as-a-Service run by EmpowerID as Web and Application Server containers in the cloud or on premise. As shown below, it is comprised of components common to all EmpowerID connectors with several that are specific to the module. The below image depicts a high-level overview of the Azure deployment model for microservices and includes a breakdown of the components that must be configured in Azure for the SharePoint Online microservice. As can be seen, the tenant needs to be configured for both the EmpowerID SCIM microservice as well as the SharePoint microservice. The EmpowerID SCIM microservice is needed for EmpowerID to connect with the Azure tenant, while the SharePoint Online (SPO) microservice allows EmpowerID to communicate with and inventory SharePoint data.
