SharePoint extension

SharePoint is developed by Microsoft, popularly used for collaboration, document management, and for building internal websites. It works as a repository to store, organize and manage files and folders. This in-turn helps to share the files and folders within the teams securely. Creating Sites in SharePoint will allow their team members to communicate and collaborate efficiently.
 
By integration SharePoint with Zoho Sprints, the files related to the Zoho Sprints entities can be created or associated in SharePoint right from within the respective entities allowing the users to easily access them. SharePoint files can be created from projects, sprints, releases, epics and work items.
 
Users who use Office365 for managing their work related documents and Zoho Sprints to manage their projects will profit by installing this extension in Zoho Sprints.

Use case 

A software company uses Zoho Sprints to manage their agile projects. Within each project they plan their product/ feature releases, sprints, and the features they develop.
 
Every feature they work with, the team mandatorily should prepare the following documents:
  1. Product Requirement Document (PRD)
  2. UX/Design Document
  3. Technical Design Document (TDD)
  4. API Documents
  5. Release Notes
  6. QA Plan documents
For every entity in Zoho Sprints, users can either create new Sharepoint files or associate existing files available across different folders.

Also, for each project a separate document library can be created in SharePoint and it can be associated to the project in Zoho Sprints. The associated library and the documents within it will be available as a new module within the Zoho Sprints projects. This way, users can create separate document repositories for each project.
