OneDrive
Microsoft OneDrive stores documents, PDFs, and notes for personal Microsoft accounts across devices. When research papers, reference material, or project drafts sit across dozens of personal folders, finding a specific passage or comparing two versions still means opening each file by hand.
Connect selected folders from your personal OneDrive account to an Omnifact Space to turn your documents and notes into a searchable knowledge base. Omnifact imports the files in your chosen folders, keeps them synchronized automatically when you add or edit documents in OneDrive, and cites the exact file in every answer so you can verify the source immediately.

What to know before
using OneDrive with Omnifact
Use cases, access permissions, data handling, and setup when connecting OneDrive to Omnifact.
What can Omnifact do with documents from a personal OneDrive?
Omnifact turns selected folders from your personal OneDrive account into the knowledge base of a Space. You can summarize a folder of research papers, locate a detail in old notes, or compare two drafts of a document in plain language, with every answer citing the exact OneDrive file it used.
Do changes in OneDrive show up in Omnifact automatically?
Yes. Once a OneDrive folder is linked to a Space, Omnifact picks up new, revised, and deleted files automatically. You never have to upload updated versions by hand, and answers always draw on the latest file in that folder.
Which OneDrive file types does Omnifact read?
Omnifact reads PDF, Word, PowerPoint, OpenDocument text and presentations, plain text, Markdown, CSV, and JSON files up to 500 MB per file. For Excel spreadsheets, save the relevant tables as CSV files in the synced folder so Omnifact can read them.
Can Omnifact show which OneDrive file an answer comes from?
Yes. Every answer based on your synced OneDrive folders cites the specific files it used, so you can open the original document and verify a number or passage before relying on it.
Who can ask Omnifact about synced OneDrive files?
Only the members of the Space into which you synced the folders. Because Space membership controls access inside Omnifact, only sync personal OneDrive folders whose contents every member of that Space is allowed to see.
Where does Omnifact store files from OneDrive?
Synced files are stored and indexed inside the chosen Space in Omnifact so answers return quickly with citations. Your original files remain in OneDrive under your agreement with Microsoft. Omnifact is operated in Germany, data is never used to train AI models, and admins can restrict Spaces to European or Europe-hosted models.
How do I connect OneDrive to Omnifact?
An Omnifact admin enables personal OneDrive once for the organization, and you then sign in with your personal Microsoft account under App Connections in your account settings and select the folders for your Space. For Microsoft 365 work or school accounts, use the OneDrive for Business integration instead.
