ChatGPT can now access OneDrive and SharePoint files

ChatGPT can now access OneDrive and SharePoint files

While AI has been experiencing a meteoric rise lately, OpenAI has just taken a step ahead of its competitors. Indeed, ChatGPT can now connect to your OneDrive documents and SharePoint to increase your productivity and improve your organization.

However, while this advancement in the professional world promises many advantages, you will need to meet certain criteria to use it, according to Neowin. In other words, this feature is not for everyone.

How can you benefit from this advantage?

While the productivity gains and work improvements are enticing, you'll need to have ChatGPT Plus, Pro, or Team and reside outside the EEA, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom to take advantage of it. You'll then need to give this AI permission to view your OneDrive documents, which recently introduced new features.

And there are two methods available to you. The first is to choose the advanced search in the text composer, click the down arrow, and select SharePoint. Next, authorize the connection with ChatGPT, which knows where your photos were taken, and you will be free to choose the folders accessible with this technology.

For the second method, you will need to be more careful. Indeed, it will be necessary to go to the ChatGPT settings via the Connected applications tab. Then, go to Connectors and select OneDrive.

Permanent control thanks to administrators

However, there is no need to worry about the confidentiality of documents and the appearance of potential leaks. Indeed, this connection will require administrative approval at the level of the organization or company concerned.

Furthermore, OpenAI specifies this on its side: “ChatGPT generates search queries from your prompts to locate relevant information in your connected Microsoft document libraries and transmits them to Microsoft”. In other words, a permanent control will be present on your files, which will limit disappointments.

However, you will have to be patient if you live in France and want to take advantage of this feature. Indeed, the latter is not yet available and the American company has still not communicated any dates on this subject.

However, in the meantime, it is possible to turn to Microsoft Copilot which also targets OneDrive. This tool is similar to this ChatGPT feature, although it is limited to those with a work or school account and only five files can be managed at a time. This is while OpenAI does not specify any restrictions on this.
