SharePoint Online MCP Server

MCP server for SharePoint Online — zero-config, no Azure Portal, no env vars.

Quick Start

Install and run:

npx sharepoint-online-mcp

Add to Claude Desktop (claude_desktop_config.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "sharepoint": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "sharepoint-online-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

No environment variables needed. That's the entire setup.

How It Works

  • Uses the Microsoft Office well-known client ID — no Azure app registration needed

  • On first use, prompts for device code authentication (open a URL, enter a code)

  • Auto-discovers your tenant ID from the SharePoint URL

  • Caches tokens in ~/.sharepoint-mcp-cache.json — persists across restarts

Usage

Start by asking Claude to connect to your SharePoint site:

"Connect to https://contoso.sharepoint.com/sites/marketing"

Claude will handle the authentication prompts. Once connected, use any tool — search sites, create pages, manage navigation, and more.

Requirements

  • Node.js >= 18

  • A Microsoft 365 / SharePoint Online account

Known Limitations

  • Some organizations block device code authentication via Conditional Access policies. If you see error AADSTS50076 or AADSTS53003, contact your IT administrator.

  • Only works with SharePoint Online (Microsoft 365), not on-premises SharePoint Server.

  • Permissions depend on your Microsoft 365 account — you can only access sites you have permission to.

Troubleshooting

Problem

Solution

Authentication failed

Run the disconnect tool and try again

Tenant discovery failed

Check that the SharePoint URL is correct and accessible

Access denied (403)

Your account may not have permission for this site or operation

Resource not found (404)

Verify the site URL, page ID, or resource exists

Token issues

Delete ~/.sharepoint-mcp-cache.json and re-authenticate
