A prospect asked us this question. Is it possible to integrate files in Sharepoint to be searchable and otherwise usable in Cloud DocuWare, without moving them to DocuWare itself, so that the files do not use the storage of the DocuWare system itself. Is this possible with Connect To Sharepoint?

Regarding this, is it also possible to do with a physical server which resides in a data center. So that the files reside physically in a server in a data center, but that the files are visible, readable, searchable and usable in a Cloud DocuWare?

Dear Arttu Nikkilä,
this is not possible. To be able to search in DocuWare, the file has to be stored in DocuWare.

Thank you for your answer

I studied this this page which has information regarding the Connect to SharePoint module: https://start.docuware.com/connect-to-sharepoint

How does this module work? It seems to provide ways to move and save files directly from SharePoint to DocuWare. It also says: " Securely archive, index, search and apply workflow to any SharePoint document within DocuWare for smarter, integrated, compliant business automation. " Does this mean that the indexing, searching and workflows do not apply to the documents in SharePoint, they only work then the documents are moved to DocuWare from Sharepoint?
