Add, Edit, and Remove People in SharePoint
Owners of a SharePoint site can add others to the site, change their role, or remove them.
Be sure to have multiple Owners to your site. They will be able to assist in administrative tasks if you are away or leave the university.
External users (those without UConn email addresses) can be added to SharePoint sites. Visit our https://uconn.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/IKB/pages/26402750535 guide to learn how.
Adding UConn Users as Members
Navigate to s.uconn.edu/sharepoint.
Find your SharePoint site and click on it. Give the webpage a few seconds to fully load.
Click on either Members or Site Access in the top right corner.
Click Add Members.
Search for the people you would like to add by either their name or their email address.
Decide the access level these new users should have.
Add them as a Member if you would like them to have read/edit/delete/restore access to all of the files in the SharePoint site. Members can also share files.
Add them as an Owner if you would like them to be able to add other users to this site as you are now.
Click Save.
New users added will be added as a Member by default. You can change their role to Owner by using the drop-down arrow under their name.
Changing Roles Between Member and Owner
Find the member you would like to change and click the dropdown arrow next to their membership status (this will say Owner or Member).
Choose the new role this user should have, or remove them from the site.
