Contracts live in SharePoint. Redline them without leaving the library.
Drop any contract from a team site, communication site or Document Set straight into the top.legal editor, then write the executed PDF back to the same library — metadata, sensitivity labels and retention policy intact. Skip the export-to-desktop dance and the duplicate-library cleanup later.
SharePoint is the contract library that nobody fully owns.
Sites sprawl, libraries duplicate, the signed PDF lives in a chat thread instead of the deal folder.
Which library has the latest?
Three sites host the same template under three slightly different names. Nobody is sure which one is canonical.
Site sprawlPermission requests pile up
Counterparties need access, but only IT can hand out site permissions. Each request waits a day for someone in helpdesk.
Access bottleneckApprovals lost in Teams chat
The contract was approved in a thread nobody can find six months later. Audit trail blanks out exactly where it matters.
Lost audit trailPick from any SharePoint site,
click straight into the editor.
top.legal opens the same site list and library tree your team already navigates — no shadow IT, no parallel folder structure. Pick a site, pick a library, pick a file. It lands in the top.legal editor with formatting, comments and version history intact.
Nothing is mirrored or indexed in the background. Files only enter top.legal on explicit user action, under that user's effective SharePoint permissions.
- Native picker for sites, libraries and document sets
- Works with team sites, communication sites and OneDrive for Business
- DOCX, PDF and Word for the web open inline — no download, no checkout, no plug-in
- Search across every connected site, not just the one you opened
Effective permissions inherited from the site are evaluated on every fetch. Anything outside your trim — including item-level breaks — stays unreachable to top.legal.
One template library, every site on the same approved version.
Point top.legal at the document library that holds your approved templates. Edits in Word for the web propagate on the next import — the template a salesperson opens is always the version Legal blessed last.
- Template edits in SharePoint show up on the next import
- Signed PDFs are written back to the document library you choose
- Sensitivity labels and retention policies travel with the document into top.legal
SharePoint stays the system of record for files. top.legal layers redline, approval and signature without moving the data out of your tenant.
Live in five minutes. your Entra admin doesn't need to file a ticket.
Standard OAuth via Microsoft Entra — your admin pre-approves the app from the Entra admin centre. Tokens live inside your tenant and can be revoked there too.
Pick the document library that holds approved templates and the one where executed contracts should land. Anything outside those libraries — and outside your effective permissions — stays untouched.
Open any DOCX or PDF in the top.legal editor — track changes, internal comments, approval routes and QES signature all in one tab.
Executed contracts land back in the originating library with the signature certificate attached. Custom columns, content types and audit log entries remain consistent.
Questions Microsoft 365 teams ask before they connect.
Can I use Word templates from SharePoint in top.legal?
Word documents are imported with formatting preserved into the top.legal editor. Edit in Word for the web or your desktop client whenever you prefer — the next sync pulls your latest version.
Are changes in SharePoint automatically reflected in top.legal?
Imports run on explicit user action — we don't subscribe to webhook firehoses or background-poll your tenant. Each import resolves the file at SharePoint's current major version, so what enters top.legal matches what your colleague saw when they hit Import.
Are retention and sensitivity labels preserved?
Labels travel with the document into top.legal and stay applied when the executed PDF is written back. Library-level retention policies apply automatically to the signed copy.
What about site permissions and conditional access?
top.legal runs as the signed-in user — any site, library or item beyond their effective permissions is invisible. Conditional access policies from Entra apply unchanged — MFA, device compliance, IP fences all enforce at sign-in.
