Unlock seamless collaboration with file sharing via Microsoft 365.

In this edition of Microsoft 365 TimeSavers, learn how to easily share any of

your cloud files when you're on the go with the Microsoft 365 App.

If you’re on the go and need to share a cloud file using the Microsoft 365 app, here’s what you can do:

  1. Open the Microsoft 365 app on your mobile device.
  2. Navigate to the file you want to share. You can find your files by clicking on the app’s navigation menu, selecting “OneDrive,” and browsing your files.
  3. Once you’ve found the file you want to share, tap on the file to open it.
  4. Tap on the “Share” button at the bottom of the screen.
  5. In the “Share” menu that appears, you can choose how you want to share the file. You can share the file as a link or by sending it as an email attachment. You can also choose whether you want the recipient to be able to edit the file or only view it.
  6. If you choose to share the file as a link, you can set permissions for the recipient by selecting “Anyone with the link can edit” or “Anyone with the link can view” or “Specific people.”
