This integration is great. But if you want full Sharepoint support on Confluence or Jira, and not just OneDrive you need to check this: https://teamfiles.app
You can connect full folders, not just documents. :)
Atlassian Team members are employees working across the company in a wide variety of roles.

Thank you everyone for the feedback. We will look into support for SharePoint for this integration.
@Guen Dang@Mads Eibe Sørensen can you please email me with the problem you are getting. Would like to see the steps you followed (sluthra at atlassian dot com)

This is a great way to share documents! However I'd like to point out that the App SharePoint Connector for Confluence does similar things for Confluence Cloud as well as Server and Data Center and integrates with SharePoint Online and Server as well as OneDrive.
@Adam FYI: at our configuration it magically started working about two days after I fist got that error.. I didn't change anything. Not really a solution but it may be worth not to care too much and check again tomorrow :-)
Just a note: make sure, the link you are integrating is a Word or Excel document. I can embed those files without problems, but using a link to a png picture for example also results in that error (couldn't find a document).
@Shrey Maybe the error message should state "couldn't find a supported document at this URL, please make sure it's a supported file type: docx, [...]"
@Gerard Sala@Ralf Schneider It's currently written to be, unfortunately, misleading for how most of us in the Office365 platform use OneDrive for Business.
This only supports the PERSONAL 1TB of storage your Office365 account gets in OneDrive.
It does NOT support anything on SharePoint (which is how the large majority of us use SharePoint and OneDrive in the cloud).
I was super excited about this feature until I learned that major caveat.
Hi, @Andrii Pinchuk@Shrey It looks like only documents stored on the personal files of the OneDrive Business account are displayable. Most organitzacions use Microsoft Teams shared folders for project documents, which are the ones most likely to be integrated as this is business information. Also, it's more easy to manage permissions. Otherwise, every file on my OneDrive would need for me to set up permissions about who can see it. Moreover, if I want to add these files on Confluence, I may create a new Teams (SharePoint) global folder, with View permissions for all my organization, so there will be no problem in viewing them within Confluence... But to do this, the plugin needs to access those files, too All these files get stored on a SharePoint site. Please, address this shortcoming as soon as possible. Otherwise, the uselessness of the plugin gets reduced drastically!
Does Atlassian have a timeline for this functionality to be added?
I have one question though: there is no way to leverage on confluence access rules, right? Our confluence pages are accessed by hundreds of people from several different companies. Our O365 enterprise configurations don't let us share an excel file to the world, so there seems to be no easy way to embed an excel file and make it available to all those who have rights to access the confluence page..
You can check the Team Files app. It does exactly what you're looking for. You can make files from OneDrive and Sharepoint available in Confluence to users that do not have an Office365 account. It will respect the Confluence page access permissions. Have a look here:
