Project Sync: Essential Project Permissions Required in Procore to Set-up your SyncEzy Account & Integrations


To sync projects, the user credentials used to connect your Procore account in your SyncEzy integration need to have access to all the tools on the projects you want to connect (highlighted below). If you want to sync Documents, Photos, RFIs, and Submittals in a project, ensure the user has admin permissions on those tools or else they will not appear as an option in your integration nor will the project.

If you are using a specific Project Permissions Template for all of your projects, then please ensure that access to the below-highlighted tools has been given in that template. For more details on Change a User's Permissions in the Project Directory please click here for a detailed article from Procore.




So for all the projects that you will configure, the authenticated user needs to have Admin access to those projects in Procore. Your Admin access on those projects will ensure smooth syncing of files and folders between Procore to SharePoint and vice versa.

We understand using a personal credential is easier for the free trial; however, we recommend as best practice that our customers create a service user credential to be dedicated to the sync for a few reasons. To do so, please share this guide with your Procore Admin and follow the steps below.
