Architecture
The PoolParty SharePoint architecture relies heavily on Microsoft's native functionalities. See the connections PoolParty has to SharePoint in this overview.
PoolParty for SharePoint is a SharePoint Framework (SPFx) solution, which consists of the PoolParty for SharePoint Administration web part, the PoolParty for SharePoint Search web part and the PoolParty for SharePoint Command Bar and Views extension. It communicates with SharePoint via REST API and Graph API services and with the PoolParty server via functions deployed to Microsoft Azure.
Site admins can use the PoolParty for SharePoint Administration web part to set up PoolParty for SharePoint, for example to connect SharePoint document libraries and lists to a PoolParty taxonomy, to set tagging parameters or to manage connection details and settings. For more information, refer to the Administrator Guide.
Command Bar and Views extension displays PoolParty for SharePoint UI controls and adjusts views in the SharePoint document libraries and lists that are connected to PoolParty for SharePoint. These UI controls allow SharePoint users to tag content in document libraries and lists both manually and automatically. For more information, refer to the User Guide.
PoolParty for SharePoint uses Azure functions to communicate with the PoolParty server. Every function has the same configuration properties. Azure functions communicate with SharePoint using Graph API services and client-side object model (for list attachments only).
