SharePoint - how to share a folder or file

Sharing a folder or a file from SharePoint or OneDrive

 

From SharePoint select the arrow looking icon from the file or folder you want to share

 

 

This is your default settings, but you can click on the arrow pointing right ( > ) for more options


Here you can select the “Anyone with the link” option, this is the less secure option but you can always make it more secure by not allowing editing and setting an expiration date

 

Next option is “People in First Place for Youth with the link” with this option you can share files or folders only with other FPFY employees


This  option is more of a shortcut to a file or folder to those who already have access


This option works for external or internal people it is more secure and works only for those who you invite, you also have the option to give edit access
