I assume only a admin has to install this to make the sharepoint drives available for all team members accross all projects? Is this correct?

Has this extension been removed? This extension no longer appears in the marketplace when we search for it. Please advise on if/when this extension will be reintroduced.

Hello there,

The Sharepoint extension is currently not available in the Canada and Saudi Data Centers. We will update the help doc once the extension goes live in these regions.
