A short video on SharePoint Integration

The video below shows several Socialtext and SharePoint integration points, including:
  • Adding microblogging to SharePoint via Socialtext Signals
  • Showing SharePoint events (such as when colleagues add files to a SharePoint file library) in the Socialtext Activity Stream
  • Accessing Socialtext Workspaces from within SharePoint
  • Searching the Socialtext People Directory from within SharePoint

    Looks interesting. What happens if I have a SharePoint site that Alice and Bob can view but Cathy can't. Let's say Bob uploads a doc to that site then it shows up in the Signals stream. What prevents Cathy from seeing that update on the Signals side?

    The admin defines which group (in Signals) can see the SharePoint events. Each member's Active Directory credentials then determine if they have access to the document or not.

    Are you currently using both SharePoint and Socialtext today?
