The SharePoint data source field names must exist in your SharePoint custom metadata.

ProxyConfiguration

Configuration information to connect to your Microsoft SharePoint site URLs via instance via a web proxy. You can use this option for SharePoint Server.

You must provide the website host name and port number. For example, the host name of https://a.example.com/page1.html is "a.example.com" and the port is 443, the standard port for HTTPS.

Web proxy credentials are optional and you can use them to connect to a web proxy server that requires basic authentication of user name and password. To store web proxy credentials, you use a secret in AWS Secrets Manager.

It is recommended that you follow best security practices when configuring your web proxy. This includes setting up throttling, setting up logging and monitoring, and applying security patches on a regular basis. If you use your web proxy with multiple data sources, sync jobs that occur at the same time could strain the load on your proxy. It is recommended you prepare your proxy beforehand for any security and load requirements.

Type: ProxyConfiguration object

Required: No

SslCertificateS3Path

The path to the SSL certificate stored in an Amazon S3 bucket. You use this to connect to SharePoint Server if you require a secure SSL connection.

You can generate a self-signed X509 certificate on any computer using OpenSSL. For an example of using OpenSSL to create an X509 certificate, see Create and sign an X509 certificate.

Type: S3Path object

Required: No

UseChangeLog

TRUE to use the SharePoint change log to determine which documents require updating in the index. Depending on the change log's size, it may take longer for Amazon Kendra to use the change log than to scan all of your documents in SharePoint.

VpcConfiguration

Configuration information for an Amazon Virtual Private Cloud to connect to your Microsoft SharePoint. For more information, see Configuring a VPC.
