The University provides all faculty, staff, and students with a OneDrive for Business account via their Office 365 subscription. OneDrive is a cloud-hosted file storage solution that also supports collaboration (e.g., sharing documents, simultaneous editing). When you save files to OneDrive, you can access them on any device with an internet connection.
Accessing the OneDrive Web Client (website)
On a Windows, Mac, or Linux (including Chromebook) computer,
Navigate to https://uconn-my.sharepoint.com/ and sign in with your UConn email address and NetID password.
You may also visit office365.com, sign in using the same credentials listed above, click on the app launcher icon in the top-left corner, and choose OneDrive.
After signing in, you will be brought to your OneDrive home page: your main file directory.
In the left-hand menu, you will see that you are looking at “My files”. You may now navigate your files in the main content window of this page.
Looking at your files and folders, click on the context menu (three vertical dots) to see all your options.
In that same left-hand menu, you will also see your recently accessed files, and files that have been shared with you.
Many file types can be opened from this website. Office365 files will open the web-version of their editor (example: .doc file opening the web-version of Word). This means Office365 does not need to installed on the computer. Click on a file and give it a try!
