# SharePoint Remote Connector

SharePoint Remote Connector is an IDOL connector that retrieves information from a Microsoft SharePoint repository, through the SharePoint web services. Unless you want to place and release holds on documents, there is no need to install additional web services on the SharePoint server.

The connector can also retrieve information from an instance of SharePoint Online.

After the connector has retrieved information from SharePoint, the files are sent to Connector Framework Server (CFS), which processes the information and indexes it into an IDOL Server.

After the documents are indexed, IDOL server automatically processes them, performing a number of intelligent operations in real time, such as:
