This component uses the REST API to fetch users and groups from SharePoint Online. One single call is done to get all the users and groups from each site collection url specified on the connector configuration. All users and groups information is cached.
Note: The SharePoint Online group expansion will only return users and groups inside SharePoint. To get the Azure AD group information, you need to install the Azure AD Group Expander.
This section lists all configuration parameters available to configure the SharePoint Online Group Expansion component.
