Server address Enter the URL of the SharePoint server where the documents will be stored.

This field can contain an "http://" or "https://" prefix followed by the server name or IP address; for example, http://sp2010 or https://192.168.0.178. Alternatively, it can contain only the server address; for example, sp2010-tl-en, in this case the component will insert "http://" before it automatically.

User name Specify the name of the user account that which will be used to log on to the server. If you use a domain user account to connect to the server, enter the user name with the domain name; for example, ORGDOMAIN\SpUser. The local server users may enter only the user name; for example, SpUser.
Password Enter the password of the user account specified in User name field.
Use authenticated user credentials Select this check box to use the credentials of the user, logged on to the Web UI, to access SharePoint. The user credentials that will be used to access SharePoint depend on the authentication method that is selected on the Authentication tab in the Web Capture settings dialog box:
  • Integrated Windows: the credentials of the currently logged in user will be used.
  • Active Directory: the credentials used to access the Web UI will be used.
  • LDAP: the credential used to access the Web UI will be used.
  • Custom script: in this case, you should define a password field with the name WinPassword and set the property UserName of the UserInfo object in the script. The values of this property and of the WinPassword field will be used as user name and password to access SharePoint.

For more information, see Authentication tab.

If this option is selected, the user name and password provided on this tab are used to access SharePoint only at configuration time.
When using this option, you can configure the WebCapture and SharePoint components by means of RRTs so that the documents are sent to the SharePoint server under the same user that logs on to the web form. To do this, select the Use authenticated user credentials check box, and specify the user name in the SharePoint component configuration with the following RRT string: ~WCC::UserDomain~\~WCC::UserName~. See Web Capture component RRTs for details.
