To configure external document storage:
CLM Admin User
Note When you use external document storage with Microsoft 365 and a minimum-privilege access
model, only the docgen designer who creates a Microsoft 365 document can edit the document by
default. To enable shared editing when multiple designers work in the same org, create a
dedicated folder in Microsoft SharePoint, grant access to the required designers, and configure
a separate external document storage configuration in Salesforce that points to this folder.
Thus, preserving the minimum-privilege security model while supporting collaboration.
From Setup, in the Quick Find box, enter External Document, and then
select External Document Storage Configuration.
Click New.
Select Document Templates as the target object.
For record type, select All.
In Enter Document Storage Identifier, paste the drive ID that you extracted while creating
a SharePoint .
In Document Path, specify the path of the folder where you want to store the
documents.
For example, DocumentTemplates.
Note The folder structure is created inside the SharePoint site that you created
earlier.
Select the named credential that you created earlier.
Select Microsoft OneDrive as the storage drive type.
Save your changes.

Configuration.
Save your changes.
