# How to configure OneDrive SharePoint Shared Library sync
Syncing a OneDrive SharePoint library requires additional configuration for your 'onedrive' client:
2019-01-06 00:06:04 +01:00
1. Login to OneDrive and under 'Shared Libraries' obtain the shared library name
2. Query that shared library name using the client to obtain the required configuration details
3. Create a unique local folder which will be the SharePoint Library 'root'
4. Configure the client's config file with the required 'drive_id'
5. Test the configuration using '--dry-run'
6. Sync the SharePoint Library as required
## Listing available OneDrive SharePoint Libraries
1. Login to the OneDrive web interface and determine which shared library you wish to configure the client for:
![shared_libraries](./images/SharedLibraries.jpg)
## Query that shared library name using the client to obtain the required configuration details
2019-01-06 00:09:27 +01:00
2. Run the following command using the 'onedrive' client
```text
onedrive --get-O365-drive-id '<your site name to search>'
```
This will return something similar to the following:
```text
Configuration file successfully loaded
Configuring Global Azure AD Endpoints
Initializing the Synchronization Engine ...
Office 365 Library Name Query: <your site name to search>
-----------------------------------------------
Site Name: <your site name>
Library Name: <your library name>
drive_id: b!6H_y8B...xU5
Library URL: <your library URL>
-----------------------------------------------
```
If there are no matches to the site you are attempting to search, the following will be displayed:
```text
Configuration file successfully loaded
Configuring Global Azure AD Endpoints
Initializing the Synchronization Engine ...
Office 365 Library Name Query: blah
ERROR: The requested SharePoint site could not be found. Please check it's name and your permissions to access the site.
The following SharePoint site names were returned:
* <site name 1>
* <site name 2>
...
* <site name X>
```
This list of site names can be used as a basis to search for the correct site for which you are searching
## Configure the client's config file with the required 'drive_id' & 'sync_dir' options
3. Create a new local folder to store the SharePoint Library data in
```text
mkdir ~/SharePoint_My_Library_Name
```
**Note:** Do not use spaces in the directory name, use '_' as a replacement
Update your 'onedrive' configuration file (`~/.config/onedrive/config`) with the following:
```text
sync_dir = "~/SharePoint_My_Library_Name"
```
4. Once you have obtained the 'drive_id' above, add to your 'onedrive' configuration file (`~/.config/onedrive/config`) the following:
```text
drive_id = "insert the drive_id value from above here"
```
The OneDrive client will now be configured to sync this SharePoint shared library to your local system.
**Note:** After changing `drive_id`, you must perform a full re-synchronization by adding `--resync` to your existing command line.
## Test the configuration using '--dry-run'
5. Test your new configuration using the `--dry-run` option to validate the the new configuration
## Sync the SharePoint Library as required
6. Sync the SharePoint Library to your system with either `--synchronize` or `--monitor` operations
