Getting started with QuoteCloud

QuoteCloud + Microsoft SharePoint

Signed QuoteCloud documents, filed in SharePoint

When a customer signs, Zapier fetches the signed PDF from QuoteCloud and uploads it to the right SharePoint document library. It can also create the project folder or add an item to a SharePoint list, so the rest of the business sees the win where it already works.

What Microsoft SharePoint is

Microsoft SharePoint is where many Microsoft 365 organisations keep document libraries, lists and team sites. QuoteCloud customers use it as the official home for orders, contracts and agreements.

Workflows

Three Zaps worth building first

Each one is a trigger in one app and the steps that follow in the other. Build them as they are, or change any step.

01

File signed quotes in the customer orders library

  1. WhenQuoteCloudDocument Signing Complete
  2. ThenQuoteCloudGenerate or Fetch Document PDF Link
  3. ThenMicrosoft SharePointUpload File

Once the customer has signed, the PDF is uploaded straight into the orders library, where production and quality can open it.

IT services

In practice

How three businesses use QuoteCloud with Microsoft SharePoint

Example businesses from our industry pages, and the job the connection does for each.

Manufacturing

Tessmore Engineering

Tessmore Engineering quotes machined parts like QR-220 sensor housing, Rev B, with quantity breaks the customer chooses from. When the customer signs, Zapier uploads the signed PDF to the orders library in SharePoint. Tomasz Nowak, the production manager, and Helen Marsh in quality work from that library, so they see the agreed revision and quantity without asking Callum Reid for the paperwork.

IT services

Quillfield IT

Quillfield IT runs on Microsoft 365, so every project gets a SharePoint folder. When the client signed Microsoft 365 migration & Northgate network refresh, Zapier created the project folder and uploaded the signed statement of work into it. Hannah Sato, the service delivery manager, had the scope in front of her before the kickoff, and Tariq Mansour built the plan from the same file.

QuoteCloud for iT services

Not-for-profit

Paperbark Reading Trust

Paperbark Reading Trust signs sponsors through documents like Reading Champions partnership 2027. When the sponsor's signers have all signed, Zapier files the agreement in the partnerships library and adds a row to the partners list in SharePoint. Owen Fairlie, the finance and operations manager, reports to the board from that list, and Tess Calloway doesn't have to keep a second spreadsheet.

Setup

Set it up in Zapier

  1. 1

    Connect both apps in Zapier

    Add QuoteCloud and Microsoft SharePoint to a new Zap and sign in to each with an account that can write to the site. Zapier access to QuoteCloud is on the Essentials plan and up.

  2. 2

    Choose the trigger

    Use Document Signing Complete when every signer must have signed, or Recipient Signed Document for each signature.

  3. 3

    Fetch the PDF and upload it in the same Zap

    Add Generate or Fetch Document PDF Link, then SharePoint Upload File into your site and library. The link is short-lived, so upload it straight away.

  4. 4

    Add a folder or list item, then test

    Optionally add Create Folder or Create List Item, test with a real signed document, and turn the Zap on.

QuoteCloud’s Zapier app and API are on the Essentials plan and up. Documents created through the API or Zapier carry a per-document fee of US$2.00, $1.80 or $1.60 by volume.

FAQ

QuoteCloud and Microsoft SharePoint: questions

Does it sync both ways?

No. Each Zap is a one-way automation: a QuoteCloud event, such as a signature, makes Zapier upload a file, create a folder or add a list item in SharePoint. Editing the file or list in SharePoint doesn't change the QuoteCloud document. If you want a SharePoint change to start something in QuoteCloud, build a separate Zap with a SharePoint trigger, such as New or Updated List Item.

Do I need my IT team to set it up?

Possibly. Zapier connects to SharePoint through your Microsoft account, and some organisations require an administrator to approve third-party apps before anyone can sign in. If you see a consent or approval screen, ask your Microsoft 365 administrator. Once it's approved, you choose the site, library and folder in the Zap like any other field.

Why is the PDF uploaded in the same Zap?

The PDF link QuoteCloud gives Zapier is short-lived, so it has to be used straight away. Fetching the link and uploading the file in one Zap means SharePoint stores a real file with your library's permissions and version history, not a link that stops working later.

What does it cost?

Zapier access is on QuoteCloud's Essentials plan and up. Filing signed documents in SharePoint doesn't create documents, so the per-document fee for documents created through Zapier or the API (US$2.00, falling to $1.80 and $1.60 by volume) doesn't apply. You'll need a Zapier plan that allows multi-step Zaps and covers your task volume.
