SharePoint Embedded Container Types
File Storage Containers are the foundation of SharePoint Embedded apps.
SharePoint Embedded containers are an abstract concept, conceptually a document library containing files and folders. Only the consuming application will have knowledge of a storage container and its’ content. Containers are isoldated from other content such as SharePoint and OneDrive.
SharePoint Embedded mandates a 1:1 relationship between owning application and container type.
Only approved container APIs can access a container and its associated content, with the exception of certain compliance, auditing, and Entra tooling.
Build Better Content Centric Apps with SharePoint Embedded
Content is no longer a commodity, it is currency. Data is an invaluable asset for businesses. In 2006, Clive Humby - a British mathematician - coined the phrase “data is the new oil” about the availability of both resources: neither oil nor data is valuable in its raw state; rather, value is derived when it is gathered rapidly, completely, accurately and is connected to other relevant data - and this holds true 17 years later, content is the lifeblood of your organization.
The new SharePoint Embedded Visual Code extension
What’s SharePoint Embedded? SharePoint Embedded is a headless platform that you can use to build and manage content-centric applications using the rich platform services of Microsoft 365. SharePoint Embedded lets you build apps and services integrating the advanced security and compliance features of Microsoft 365 (such as sensitivity, eDiscovery, retention, etc). Think of SharePoint Embedded as a container built on the Graph API that you can extend to your own apps.
