I have spent the last few days attempting to get wrike to add an external link via the API but the documentation is very lacking in that area.  Can we get an update regarding this, or if possible, have your team update the docs.  The information around how to create files is very thin. 

Thanks for any information or help you can provide.

Hi Devin Campbell, I can see you discussed this with our Support team member. Please let me know if you need help with anything else 🙂

All good Basudha Sakshyarika , I have already raised a support ticket and got the answer. It was disappointing, and I'm not sure why the answer can't be just added to the API document, but It is what it is.

@Rohan:
Are there any News on this?
I am waiting for a Solution on this since at least a year now. The docs say, you can add an external SharePoint file via the Wrike api, but in reality it doesn’t work.

Hi Alexander Stendel 👋

Thank you for reaching out, and apologies for any inconvenience this may have caused. To get the latest update on adding SharePoint files via the Wrike API, I’ve reached out to one of our experts for assistance. They should be in touch with you shortly to provide more information and help clarify if there are any current solutions or workarounds available.

Hi Rohan, 

thank you for reaching out. I'm in the same situation as Alexander: i'm waiting since months for this feature since it would enable new use cases for me. 

Rohan V Support was no help. This should be a simple documentation fix - my suspicion is that it is possible, it's just not well documented.
