Question

How do I determine the proper Sharepoint Web Application URL to enter in eDiscovery's Sharepoint Data Sources?

 

Answer

  1. In a browser, log into your Sharepoint Central Administration page
  2. Click on "Application Management" on the left
  3. Under "Application Security", click "Policy for Web Application"
  4. The Web Application URLs will be listed in the "Web Application" drop-down in the upper-right

 

Overview

When adding a Sharepoint data source to eDiscovery, you must enter the proper "Web Application URL".  This should not be the URL used to access the Administration interface.  The proper URLs can be found within the Sharepoint web interface.
