Import from SharePoint Term store
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

**Import from SharePoint Term store** is available under the *Import* tab and is only available for **Taxonomies**.
Its purpose is to connect directly to a Sharepoint installation and import the stored terms it finds into an EDG taxonomy collection


Once selected from the list of importers, EDG automatically uses the pre-configured Sharepoint connector.
The user is then prompted to select a Term Set found in Sharepoint to import, and to then click Continue.

Th importer will then import the Term Set and populate an EDG model reflecting the Term Store concepts.
The following figure shows the Term Store concepts as mapped into a taxonomy during import.

If the Term Set was previously imported, the newly imported model will be merged with the existing one.
If a new, clean imported set of data is preferred, then delete the Term Set from the collection before re-importing it.
