Setting up OneDrive Business’ Integration with WP File Download

Integrating OneDrive Business with WP File Download is a simple task, but it does require a short set-up procedure. If you head to the WP File Download configuration, and then into the OneDrive Business page under the Cloud Connection tab, you will see that you need a client ID and a client secret.

To get the client ID and secret, you will first need to register an application from the Microsoft Azure portal. Choose a descriptive name for your application and copy the Redirect URIs Server from WP File Download to Azure’s Redirect URI. The redirect URI normally looks similar to https://www.yourblog.com/wordpress/wp-admin/admin.php. Click Register to finalize the application.

 

Once you have created your application, you still need the client ID and secret to connect OneDrive Business with WordPress. In the Overview page, you should find the client ID, which you can copy into your WP File Download configuration.

To generate the secret, click on certificates & secret from the sidebar on the Microsoft Azure portal, and then click on new client secret. This procedure is straightforward and gives you a client secret. Copy the new client secret to your WP File Download configuration.

 

To finalize the registration in WP File Download, click on Connect OneDrive Business and give all the necessary permissions. Just like that, you have successfully integrated OneDrive Business with WP File Download, and therefore with your WordPress blog.

Using OneDrive Business on WordPress with WP File Download

If this is your first time using WP File Download, you can keep using the plugin just like before. This time, however, your OneDrive Business files will appear in the WP File Download file manager. If you have never used WP File Download before, then there is little you need to know.

 

WP File Download is essentially a file manager for WordPress. All files can be accessed from WP File Download, including your OneDrive Business ones. OneDrive Business files are distinguished from files hosted on your WordPress website with a cloud icon next to them. Similarly, you can create new OneDrive Business folders using the new button.

Any changes that you make on your WordPress website through WP File Download are automatically synchronized with OneDrive Business, and vice-versa. The files are stored in your OneDrive Business root in a folder with the same name as your WordPress website.

 

The two are always kept in sync, so you can edit files on WordPress and OneDrive Business without having to manually make changes on both websites. Use any means you have—the web, your desktop application or your smartphone—to manage files on OneDrive Business, and they will automatically appear on WordPress.
