NOTE: You must have a cloudHQ business plan to sync or back up SharePoint accounts using cloudHQ.

With cloudHQ, you can two-way sync or backup your Office 365 Sharepoint Document Library with Google Drive or Google Team Drive.

cloudHQ backup and sync are in real-time: as soon as a file or folder is changed, modified or moved it will be sync’d or backed up.

Setup Overview

To set up real-time backup of your files, you’ll need to create backup sync pairs which look like this:

SharePoint (alice@acme.com)/HR_site/Documents -> Google Drive (admin@acme.com)/HR site backup 

To set up real-time sync of SharePoint with a folder in Google Drive, you’ll need to create two-way sync pairs which look like this:

SharePoint (alice@acme.com)/HR_site/Documents <-> Google Drive (admin@acme.com)/HR site
