How Amazon Q Business connector crawls Microsoft OneDrive ACLs
Connectors support crawl ACL and identity information where applicable based on the data source. If you index documents without ACLs, all documents are considered public. Indexing documents with ACLs ensures data security.
Amazon Q Business supports crawling ACLs for document security by default. Turning off ACLs and identity crawling are no longer supported. In preparation for connecting Amazon Q Business applications to IAM Identity Center, enable ACL indexing and identity crawling for secure querying and re-sync your connector. Once you turn ACL and identity crawling on you won't be able to turn them off.
If you want to index documents without ACLs, ensure that the documents are marked as public in your data source.
When you connect an Microsoft OneDrive data source to Amazon Q Business, Amazon Q Business crawls ACL information attached to a document (user and group information) from your Microsoft OneDrive instance. If you choose to activate ACL crawling, the information can be used to filter chat responses to your end user's document access level.
A Microsoft OneDrive data source returns section and page information from OneDrive access control list (ACL) entities. Amazon Q uses the OneDrive tenant domain to connect to the OneDrive instance and can filter based on section name, page type, file name, file type and file contents.
For standard objects, the _user_id and _group_id are used as
follows:
-
_user_id– Your Microsoft OneDrive user email ID is mapped to the_user_idfield. -
_group_id– Your Microsoft OneDrive group email is mapped to the_group_idfield.
Note
Query responses based on AD Group ACLs are not supported for Microsoft OneDrive.
