Impact on Sharepoint databases if updating from SSIS

  • Hello

    I would like to know your views regarding updating Sharepoint data in lists/libraries using SSIS on a "regular" basis, like scheduled jobs every night.

    Would Sharepoint databases be corrupted? Would it have an impact on performance?

    Thank you all in advance

    Hello anyone??

  • SharePoint has a number of web services that allow you to update lists. If your SSIS package is using one of these there is no risk of corruption.

    If you are directly update tables in a SharePoint database - you will not get any support from Microsoft if something goes wrong. This is not supported and you are taking on the risk of corruption if you get it wrong.

  • Would have to agree with HappyCat59 with regard to directly trying to do this, however you may wish to check out the following:
