Add SharePoint products to your Team Foundation Service deployment

TFS 2017 | TFS 2015 | TFS 2013

Note

TFS 2018 and later versions no longer support native integration with SharePoint products. If you're planning to upgrade to TFS 2018, read About SharePoint integration to learn about the options available to you.

To integrate projects with SharePoint sites, you must add one or more SharePoint Web applications to standard and advanced installations of Team Foundation Server (TFS). The version of SharePoint Products must also be compatible with TFS. For more information, see SharePoint Products requirements for Team Foundation Server.

For guidance about how to install SharePoint Products for TFS, see Manually Install SharePoint Products. For guidance about how to add an existing deployment of SharePoint Products to TFS, see Verify SharePoint products for Team Foundation Server

  1. Install and configure the Extensions for SharePoint Products on the server or servers hosting the SharePoint deployment you want to integrate with TFS.

  2. On the server where you installed the extensions, open the administration console for Team Foundation.

  3. Expand the tree, and choose Extensions for SharePoint Products.

  4. In the Extensions pane, choose <span Grant access.

    The Access for Team Foundation Server window opens.

  5. In URL for Team Foundation Server, the public URL for Team Foundation Server.

    You can look up this information in the Application Tier node of the administration console where you have installed the application tier for Team Foundation Server.

  6. In SharePoint Web Application, choose the URL for the SharePoint web application that you want to use from the drop-down list.

    If you have installed the Team Foundation Server Extensions for SharePoint Products on the server that is hosting the SharePoint Web applications, all SharePoint web applications on that server appear in the list. If no web applications appear, either the extensions were not installed correctly, or no SharePoint web applications have been configured.

  7. (optional) In Restrict site creation to the following path, specify the path of the site collection where you want to create all sites that Team Foundation Server will use.

    This step is recommended for most deployments, because it helps ensure that the deployment can be backed up and restored correctly.

  8. In Enterprise Application Definition, specify the name of the definition that you created for Team Foundation Server.

    This step is required only if you are configuring a web application that is hosted on SharePoint Server and you want reports and dashboards to operate correctly. For more information, see Configure the enterprise application definition for Team Foundation Server.

  9. When you have provided the required information, choose OK.

    If all values are correct, access will be granted. This process might take several moments.

To grant access between Team Foundation Server and a SharePoint web application:

  1. On the server where you have installed the application tier for Team Foundation Server, open the administration console for Team Foundation.

  2. Expand the tree, and choose SharePoint Web Applications.

  3. In the SharePoint Web Applications pane, choose Add.

    The SharePoint Web Application Settings window opens.

  4. On the General tab, in Friendly Name, specify a name for this SharePoint web application.

    This name will appear in the list of web applications. If you intend to use more than one SharePoint web application in your deployment, consider specifying a name that will help users distinguish this access grant from the access grants for other SharePoint web applications. You can also add a description in the Description box to help identify this access grant, but the description will not appear in the list.

  5. In Web Application URL, specify the URL of the SharePoint web application for which you want to grant access.

    This name should match the name of the web application in SharePoint Products. If the SharePoint web application is configured to use a port number that is not the standard default (80), you must also specify the port number.

  6. In Central Administration URL, specify the URL and the port number for SharePoint Central Administration.

    Note

    If you have administrative permissions on the server that is running SharePoint Products, you can view this URL and port number by opening SharePoint Central Administration. If not, you must obtain this information from an administrator for that server.

  7. In Default location for project collection sites, specify the relative path for the site collection that you want to use as the root for project collections that use this SharePoint web application.

    Note

    By default, the location name is /sites, but you can use any named path for site collections as configured in SharePoint Central Administration. If you are deploying Team Foundation Server in an environment where another administrator manages SharePoint Products, consider contacting that administrator for guidance on which path to use.

  8. (optional) If you want to make sure that the relative path that you provided is valid, choose Verify Path.

  9. Choose OK.

    If all the values are correct, the SharePoint Web application appears in the list of Web applications that are available for use with Team Foundation Server. This process might take several moments.

    Note

    Team Foundation Server will not only grant access but also attempt to add the service accounts for the SharePoint web application to the appropriate group in Team Foundation. If any one of these attempts fails, the configuration information for the web application is saved, but an error message appears. You must then manually configure the settings that the message indicates.

Add the Service Account for the SharePoint web Application

When you grant access between a SharePoint web application and Team Foundation Server, you must add the service account for the web application to the SharePoint Web Application Services group in Team Foundation Server.

Note

You do not have to perform the procedure to grant access between a SharePoint web application and Team Foundation Server if your account is a member of the Farm Administrators group. If your account is a member of that group, these settings are configured for you automatically when you perform the procedure to grant access between Team Foundation Server and the SharePoint web application.

To add a service account for a SharePoint web application to SharePoint Web Application Services:

  1. On the server where you have installed the application tier for Team Foundation Server, open the administration console for Team Foundation.

  2. Expand the tree, and choose SharePoint Web Applications.

  3. In the SharePoint Web Applications pane, in the Service Accounts for SharePoint Web Applications section, choose Add Members.

    The Select Users, Computers, or Groups dialog box opens.

  4. In Enter the object names to select, specify the account that you want to add, and then choose OK.
