Cloud App Security uses a single SharePoint Online Delegate
Account for both SharePoint Online and OneDrive. If you want to protect both
services, grant Cloud App Security access to SharePoint
Online and OneDrive respectively with the same Delegate Account to add required data
about both services to the Delegate Account.
During access grant, Cloud App Security allows you to
synchronize:
-
All SharePoint site collections and/or OneDrive users and groups of your organization
-
Certain SharePoint site collections and/or OneDrive users of your organization for testing purposes
![]() |
ImportantYou need to use the same option when granting access to Exchange Online,
SharePoint Online, and OneDrive, that is, to either synchronize all targets or
synchronize certain targets.
For access grant with certain targets synchronized, Cloud App Security does not support manual
synchronization and scheduled synchronization.
