# Create a Microsoft SharePoint Unstructured (Site Pages & Site Assets) Data Lake Object

Create an Unstructured Data Lake Object (UDLO) in Data 360 to ingest your organization's content from Microsoft SharePoint into Data 360.

The data stream ingests data from your selected repositories into a UDLO and maps it to an Unstructured Data Map Object (UDMO). Data 360 uses the UDMO to create a search index and uses it to ground AI-generated responses.

See the [Unstructured Data File Formats and Connectors](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=data.c360_a_unstructured_data_connect.htm&type=5&_ga=2.54358824.107688776.1773076895-1113680942.1770654531) for a list of supported file formats.

| User Permissions Needed       |                      |
| :---------------------------- | :------------------- |
| To connect unstructured data: | Data Cloud Architect |

Before you begin:

- Set up a [Microsoft SharePoint Unstructured (Site Pages & Site Assets) Connection](https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/data/data-cloud-int/guide/c360-a-set-up-microsoftsharepoint-unstructured-spsa-connection.html).
- Verify you have your Microsoft SharePoint Site Name.
- Verify in the setup of the Microsoft Azure app, you added the `Sites.FullControl.All` permission.

1. From the **App Launcher**, select **Data Cloud**.
2. Click **Data Lake Objects** and then click **New**.
3. Select the **From External Files** tile, and click **Next**.
4. From the New Data Lake Object screen, select **Microsoft SharePoint Unstructured Data (Site Pages & Site Assets)** and click **Next**.
5. From the **Select connection** dropdown list, choose available connections. Data 360 auto-populates the source based on the connection that you select.
6. Add the SharePoint **Site Name** that you collected earlier.
7. Select one or both of these SharePoint libraries.
   - **Site Pages:** Modern SharePoint pages used to create and display unstructured content such as announcements, knowledge articles, and dashboards within a SharePoint site. The page content is stored in the `.aspx` format, and each page is ingested as a separate content item by the connector.
   - **Site Assets:** A SharePoint library that stores supporting files used by Site Pages, such as images, media, and other resources required to render page content. These assets can include multiple file formats such as images, documents, and media files.
8. Click **Next**.
9. Add an Object Name and an Object API Name for the UDLO. See [Data Lake Object Naming Standards](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=data.c360_a_data_lake_object_naming.htm&type=5).
10. From the Data Space dropdown list, select a data space in which to create the new UDMO or a data space from which to select an existing UDMO.
11. Map the UDLO to a UDMO.
    - To create a new UDMO, click **New**.
    - To use an existing UDMO, click **Existing**, and select a UDMO from the list.
12. Optionally, leave the checkbox selected to create a search index configuration for the UDMO using system defaults that automatically selects text fields and a chunking strategy for each field. You can deselect the checkbox and create a search index configuration later if you choose not to do so now.
13. Select the checkbox to enable [Content Harmonization](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=data.c360_a_harmonize_content_for_consistent_viewing.htm) for the UDLO. Leave it deselected to enable content harmonization later.

    **note:** If you enable content harmonization now, AI Enrichments (Summary and Q&A) are disabled by default. To enable AI Enrichments, create a [Harmonization Configuration](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=data.c360_a_unstructured_content_harmonization.htm) **and** enable [Einstein](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=ai.generative_ai_enable.htm).

    **note:** When you enable content harmonization, you enable collection of [Content Viewer engagement data](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=data.c360_a_content_viewer_user_engagement_insights.htm&type=5).

14. Click **Next**, or if you created a search index configuration, review the details.
15. Leave the remaining fields as-is to use the default settings, or rename and change the Search Configuration details and objects to make changes.
16. **Save** your work.

The connector begins to ingest your content. The ingestion process takes several minutes and the length of time depends on the size and number of the Microsoft SharePoint assets you're ingesting. See the [Monitoring](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=data.c360_a_monitor_the_status_of_unstructured_connectors_data_ingestion.htm&type=5&_ga=2.129842956.107688776.1773076895-1113680942.1770654531) guide for checking the ingestion progress.
