Students, faculty, and staff can share their data with the 365 sharing tool. Across the different apps within 365 (OneDrive, SharePoint, Word, Forms, etc.), users have the same Share tool. Follow this guide to learn how to collaborate with others.
Sharing files and folders
OneDrive and SharePoint are UConn’s two cloud storage locations. UConn community members should store their data in these two locations to keep data safe from accidental edits, damage to physical devices, and to access the data while off campus. Files and folders can be shared internally between coworkers and externally with outside collaborators. Visit Share OneDrive and SharePoint files to learn more.
Share Data Externally
Data can easily be shared with people outside of the university (anyone without an @uconn.edu email address). External users can engage in real-time collaboration just like UConn members. To learn more about sharing externally, and the external user experience, visit Share Microsoft 365 files with External Users.
Manage Access
UConn community members can alter access previously granted to others. Others' access level can be changed or removed altogether. Visit Manage Access to Shared Items in 365 to learn more.
Sharing Forms
UConn community members can create and share forms to gather information. To learn how to share a Form that you have created, visit Share Microsoft Forms.
