Online storage to allow for access across multiple devices

Each Team hosts a file structure similar to Windows or OneDrive, where you can create and nest folders to easily organize your work. This file structure is found in the Files tab, at the top of every Channel.

Each Channel within teams as its own Files tab which can help seperate relevant information, however it will also mean another destination to direct users to.

To create folders in Teams:

1. In Files, select New then select Folder
2. Once your folders are created you can upload documents and organize accordingly

For extra organization, folders can also be colour-coded. Right click on any folder, then hover over Folder Color to change its colour.

To send users to destinations outside of the organization, you can create external links to web content much like you can with any other web-based platform. Links are created and hosted within the Files tab, among your other folders and files.

To create a link:

1. In Files, select New then select Link
2. Enter the URL to link to and name your link (a reconizable and identifying name)

You can use OneDrive to add and upload, manage, secure, protect and restore files you want to share and collaborate on with others.  

For specific instructions on how to do this please go to our OneDrive documentation at https://wts.uwo.ca/microsoft_onedrive/index.html.
