Getting Started

Welcome to the Connectivity App!
This guide will help you set up and start using the application to check connections for MongoDB, SharePoint Online, and Azure.


Prerequisites

Before using the app, make sure you meet the basic system requirements.
Depending on the type of test you plan to perform, you might also need additional accounts or services.

System Requirements

  • Windows 10 or higher
  • Network access

Additional Requirements (depending on the test)

  • MongoDB instance (version 7.x or higher)
  • SharePoint account
  • Azure account

Accounts and Credentials

You will need:

  • Host and Port
  • Username and Password (if required)

SharePoint Online

Depending on your authentication method:

Modern Authentication (recommended)

It is recommended to use Modern Authentication (certificate-based authentication) for SharePoint Online.

Using Proxy

The connectivity app can be configured to route all network requests through a proxy. To setup the app to proxy the request, you need to set the following environment variables.

NameRequiredDescription
XILL4_PROXY_HTTP✔️ YesRoute all HTTP network to this proxy address
XILL4_PROXY_HTTPS✔️ YesRoute all HTTPS network to this proxy address
XILL4_PROXY_NO_PROXY NoExclude the following globs from being proxied
note

Both the HTTP and HTTPS proxy are URLs need to start with http://.

Let's Started

Clicking the "Test Connection" button on any card will take you to the related documentation page. There, you can enter credentials and test the connection.

Below is an example of how it looks when you run the app:

MongoDB

Test connection to MongoDB databases with host, port, and authentication settings.

Test Connection →

SharePoint

Test connection to SharePoint sites with site URL and user credentials.

Test Connection →

Azure

Test connection to Azure services with connection strings and resource configurations.
