Adding and Configuring Data Sources in Shinydocs Pro
Overview
Adding data sources in Shinydocs Professional enables the Shinydocs Control Center to analyze data within that source. Each source has different requirements when they are originally set up and the requirements for each source should be reviewed before proceeding.
You can follow this guide for your initial getting started source, or by clicking + Add source in the Sources tab.
Note: You can have multiple sources of the same type (File system, SharePoint Online, etc.). Each source configured can have multiple paths/sites/etc. set.
