SharePoint in Outlook
Welcome to Colligo Contributor for Outlook. It's easy to use. Contributor links your SharePoint document libraries and lists to Outlook for easy access. You can drag-and-drop emails and documents into your Colligo for SharePoint folders. With 2-way synchronization, any changes made in Outlook and SharePoint are automatically updated. Use Contributor to manage your emails and to extend the functionality of SharePoint to Outlook - improving access, ease of use, and your personal productivity.
 
Getting Started
Linking SharePoint to Outlook using Contributor is fast. From a document library or list in SharePoint, simply click the yellow "Connect to Outlook" button in your Internet Explorer toolbar. Contributor will automatically use the credentials you entered to access the SharePoint site. You will then be prompted to add the library to Outlook. Click "Yes."

Alternatively, you can use the "Connect" button in the Outlook toolbar to stay within the Outlook interface. You will be prompted for the SharePoint site URL and your credentials. You can then select which SharePoint library or list you want to sync to Outlook.

Once synched, a sub-folder will be added to your Colligo for SharePoint folder at the top of your Outlook tree view. The naming convention is the site name and document library name - at any time you can personalize these folder names in Outlook!

The content from the SharePoint library will be automatically linked in Outlook. New content you add to the folder will be immediately synchronized to SharePoint when online. If working offline, added content will be cached and synchronized to the SharePoint server when you are back online. Configuration options can be set by double-clicking the Contributor Icon in the system tray, then selecting View from the menu bar, and choosing Options.  View a screencast here!

Saving Emails to SharePoint
In addition to saving documents in your Colligo for SharePoint folders, you can now easily save emails and attachments. You can (1) use the Send & File feature when sending an email, (2) drag-and-drop sent or received emails, or (3) use Outlook rules to automatically save new emails to SharePoint document libraries. Entire Outlook folders can also be copied to SharePoint. The email metadata (To, From, Subject, Date, etc.) and attachments are automatically captured. Enterprise managed and keyword metadata can be set via the term store. You can also set default metadata for folders - items that you subsequently drag-and-drop to these folders automatically inherit the default metadata. Use the "Ctrl" button to copy (rather than move) an email to SharePoint when you drag-and-drop. It's never been easier to share and store emails in SharePoint!
