Sharepoint Vocabulary

Vocabulary for the SharePoint API ecosystem covering REST, Graph, CSOM, and Webhooks.

14 Terms 2 Groups Updated 2026-04-17

Microsoft SharePoint Vocabulary is a controlled vocabulary published by Microsoft SharePoint on the APIs.io network, defining 14 terms.

The terms are organized into 2 groups — apis and resources.

Defined terms include SharePoint REST API, Microsoft Graph (SharePoint), SharePoint CSOM, SharePoint Webhooks, and sites.

A controlled vocabulary pins the words an API’s schemas, parameters and documentation use to one agreed definition each — the shared language a human or an agent needs to read the API the same way its authors do.
