Enhancement of Sharepoint Adapter in IBM Sterling Integrator

After the troubleshooting session with IBM L2 support and our M365 engineer, we have established that IBM Sterling is ONLY able to connect to sharepoint when the site is setup with "/sites" but we would like IBM Sterling to be able to connect to Sharepoint when the sharepoint site is setup with "/teams"


IBM Sterling can connect to Sharepoint when the Sharepoint site is set as -


https://nesbittburns.sharepoint.com/sites/87356-FileX-Sites-Selected-SPO-Test-Sites


But, IBM Sterling can not connect to sharepoint when the sharepoint site is set as -


https://nesbittburns.sharepoint.com/teams/87356-FileX-Sites-Selected-SPO-Test


Looks like IBM Sterling's configuration is having "/sites" hardcoded when it looks to establish the connection with Sharepoint site. We would like to request IBM Support to see if there is anything that can be done to introduce a functionality in IBM Sterling so that it can connect using "/teams"

What is your industry? Banking
How will this idea be used?

This will allow us to use Sharepoint Adapter to connect to Sharepoint site using "/sites"
