      Problem

      Currently, it's not possible to import a file in Assets via a Sharepoint URL using the method Import data from a web address

      This is because a SharePoint URL gets redirected to a login URL https://login.microsoftonline.com/88dff649-0e5f-468e-b3bd-96c03c60cbfe/oauth2/authorize

      Such URLs can be accessed through REST API only via the use of a Bearer token(Microsoft page: Working with files by using REST) and bearer tokens aren't supported with Assets yet, please see the open feature request: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JSDCLOUD-11482

      Suggested Solution

      It should be possible to do Assets import for files located in MS Sharepoint URLs

      Why This Is Important

      MS Sharepoint is a very popular platform for storing files. This feature will allow a user to import files directly from there instead of copying those to another location and then performing import. It will reduce 

      Workaround

      Currently there is no known workaround for this behavior. A workaround will be added here when available
