Why Embed SharePoint Containers into M365 Experiences?
Leverage Microsoft 365 environments like intranets, Teams, Viva Connections, and Power Apps to unify document access and collaboration using embedded SharePoint containers.
📁 Cross-App Embedded Collaboration
Surface libraries and folders within your M365 apps to make collaboration seamless. From .docx reports in Teams to .pptx presentations in Viva dashboards, users work where they already are — with real-time permission control and content metadata.
Key Capabilities:
- Multi-format Support: Work directly with .xlsx, .docx, .pptx, .pdf files inside the container view
- Power Platform Ready: Embed libraries into Power Apps or Power BI with full interactivity
- Dynamic View Rendering: Use filtered views and grouped metadata columns per team
- Permission Awareness: M365 container embeds respect SharePoint-level security
