When using the out of the box SharePoint integration between Dynamics 365 and Power Pages, the Power Pages part does not support the use of multiple SharePoint sites. In the backend Dynamics 365 this is not an issue.


For example: You have two Customers and have provided them with two different SharePoint sites to share documents. Because you are using standard SharePoint templates, you can manage all your document folders and security there. Your structure is as followed:


  1. Site 1
  2. Customer A: Has access to site https://www.testsite.com/acc12345/folder/
  3. Site 2
  4. Customer B: Has access to site https://www.testsite.com/acc98765/folder/


You then want your internal backoffice to see and manage these documents in Dynamics 365. You therefor add these URLs to each specific Account record so it shows in the Document Locations. This works as expected; Dynamics 365 supports different Sites and different Document Locations.


On your Customer Portal in Power Pages, you want these documents to also visualize. You can easily use the standard Power Pages integration with SharePoint. However, you realize that Power Pages only supports if there is a Standard Site (default = Yes), while in the related Dynamics 365 records it works as expected.


As Power Pages is a shell around the data in Dynamics 365, the use of multiple (different) SharePoint sites should also be supported. So not the folder solution:


  1. Site 1
  2. Customer A: Has access to site https://www.testsite.com/site123/acc12345/
  3. Customer B: Has access to site https://www.testsite.com/site123/acc98765/
