IMPLEMENTATION

Call this tool

Connect a user's Sharepoint account once, then configure and run Create Item from your backend or agent.

import { PipedreamClient } from "@pipedream/sdk"

const pd = new PipedreamClient({
  projectId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_PROJECT_ID!,
  clientId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_ID!,
  clientSecret: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_SECRET!,
  projectEnvironment: "production",
})

const result = await pd.actions.run({
  id: "sharepoint-create-item",
  externalUserId: "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
  configuredProps: {
    sharepoint: { authProvisionId: "apn_xxxxxxx" },
    siteId: "Site ID",
    listId: "List ID",
  },
})

console.log(result)

SCHEMA

Inputs

Pipedream supplies the connected account. Your application provides the operation-specific values below. Dynamic inputs are resolved against that user's account.

Create Item inputs
Property Type Description
siteId Site ID string
The ID of the SharePoint site. Use the List Sites action to find available sites and their IDs. Accepts a composite ID (e.g. contoso.sharepoint.com,<guid>,<guid>) or a server-relative path (e.g. contoso.sharepoint.com:/sites/site-name).
Required
listId List ID string
The ID of the SharePoint list. Use the List Lists action to find lists and their IDs. The ID is also available in the list URL or on the List Settings page in SharePoint (Settings → List Settings → the List query parameter in the page URL).
Required
fields Fields object
An object mapping SharePoint list column names to their values (e.g. { "Title": "My Item", "Status": "Active" }). Column names are case-sensitive and must match the internal field names in SharePoint. For partial updates, only the provided fields will be changed — omitted fields are left unchanged. To find valid column names, inspect existing list items or check the list settings in SharePoint.
Required
