Hi, we use Sharepoint extensively. Here my 2 comments:
1. Even when a Project is entirely on Sharepoint with all i.e. GPKG, you can work with it without restrictions (except speed) 2. Due to the filesize of some ressources as for example Geopackages you run risk, that Sharepoint files get out of sync. Specifically when Team works on the project. Therefore my recommendation: Move project to local drive, work with it and, when finished, move back to sharepoint dir.

The first thing we always tell our users is to set the files to Available Offline, so all reads/writes are local before being synced up to the cloud. That reduces issues, but all the obvious ones around file corruption and overwriting still apply. As mentioned, GDAL/QGIS did use to always write the lockfile inside whenever anyone opened a geopackage, which would cause the file to sync back to the cloud and flood your bandwidth, which is a real pain. That has changed, but it doesn't solve the multiple-users overwriting issue though. My long-term solution was going to be building a proper geospatial infrastructure with MerginMaps and PostGIS so people 'check-out' the geopackages they needed, then merged them back in. Sadly we've just been sold to an ESRI-using company, so that will never happen, however they do use Sharepoint so maybe I'll find out if that's any better than Drive in my near future. Cheers! John.
