Uploading files to Sharepoint from Salesforce

Question

I came to know that, through file connect one can only view Sharepoint files in Salesforce.

I am trying to Upload files to sharepoint from Salesforce and access them from salesforce. User uploads files in SalesForce. But it should actually save to SharePoint. User will not be knowing that, file is being saved in SharePoint and Only the Reference to the files will be in Salesforce

Can someone provide some input on this. – Balagi149 Feb 27 '19 at 16:13 — Balagi149, Feb 27 '19 at 16:13

With Document Extractor you can do what you need - once the file is uploaded in Salesforce a copy of the uploaded file will upload in SharePoint, then a link file pointing to that SharePoint location is created in Salesforce and the Salesforce is deleted.
