Introduction

NYSERDA uses an externally-facing SharePoint site as a secure web-based collaboration platform. With this platform, files can be shared with NYSERDA staff, external stakeholders, as well as with inter-agency personnel who require access to perform their specific job duties. Sharing files or information that contain Public, Confidential-Internal, Confidential-Private, and/or Confidential-Restricted information are subject to NYSERDA's Data Classification and Security Controls Policy.

This page outlines the process involved in requesting new External SharePoint sitesite components such as Document Libraries or Lists. Click each tab below, in order, to review the complete process and all steps involved. If you have questions or issues with any part of this process, please reach out to the Data Governance office for further support.
