Using Teams to grant access to files in SharePoint

#SharePoint #Teams #Files #Access #Permissions #Miscrosoft365 #Onboarding #New #User

1. You will need to know where the desired files are located. Open Teams and click the Files tab, then locate your files.
   
   

   Open

   

   We see that each Hub’s files are located in the Team PHY_HUBS
   
   

2. The Team owner will need to add the user to the Team where the files are located
   
   

   Open

   

   
   Whether an owner or a Member and guest
   
   

   Open

   

   
   or as a Member or guest
   
   
   

   Open

   

    

3. The new user will get an email welcoming them to the Team.

4. We recommend that Files found in Teams are worked with in SharePoint in a Browser. Creating a shortcut is the best way to do this. First you will need to open in SharePoint
   
   

   Open

   

   You will then see in the top right corner of the window:
   
   

   Open

   

   Click the star to change this to Following.
   
   

5. Click the home icon (the picture not the word!) to take you to the SharePoint start page
   
   

   Open

   

   Your site will then appear in a few moments and eventually you’ll have a Group box in your Frequent sites section
   
   

   Open

   

    

6. For the most frequently used subfolders, use a traditional bookmark/favourite in your browser (the recommended MS Edge is pictured). So instead of office.com > SharePoint > PHY_HUBS > Documents > Rutherford > Admin, you have a shortcut in your favourites bar.
