SharePoint integration with Alfresco community

alibizhan — Wed, 25 Jul 2018 13:27:11 GMT

Anyone can tell me how to integrate SharePoint online with Afresco community, accessing Alfresco repositories from SharePoint?

You can try AOS (Alfresco Office Services). This allows office applications to treat Alfresco as SharePoint.

Thank you very much for the reply, I have Afresco community 5.2 installed on my computer; when I see the prerequisites for using AOS, it requires:

Alfresco Content Services 6.0 or later
Alfresco Community Edition 201806 GA (6.0) or later

When I try to install Alfresco Content Service Community 6.0, there isn't any installer file.

You can use aos1.1

Can I install aos1.1 in Alfresco Community, I think it's for premium users.

I think it is also installed in amps directory, so there's no need to install. Now how can I access Alfresco repositories via SharePoint?

I've SharePoint Designer 2013 installed and also SharePoint account with my school ID.

alfresco-aos-module-1.1.x amp

_vti_bin.war in tomcat/webapp directory.

You can find packages at this link:

Hello Francesco!

With installing Alfresco Community (alfresco-community-installer-201707-win-x64), the aos installed as well.

Is there a way to integrate SharePoint with Alfresco( using SharePoint as intranet and Alfresco as repository)?

Hello Ali,

so you have to integrate two distinct ECM systems. I never use both products, but I reckon that you can configure a CMIS repository in your Sharepoint to point cmis alfresco server and CRUD contents from it.

Take a look at these old slides:

I guess there's a way to create a client user interface in SharePoint to reach documents in alfresco using cmis but I was looking for an easier way.

It would be great there was a way to configure sharepoint to store its files or copies of them in Alfresco so that it was all serachable from Alfresco
