Microsoft FAQ

What is the process to share files with students directly from Microsoft OneDrive?

Faculty wishing to share files with students directly from OneDrive must create an access permission list for each file/folder that they wish to share.

The permission list comprises the email addresses of the students.

Please see https://faq.mdc.edu/knowledgebase/faculty-external-sharing-faq/ for step-by-step instructions.

As for access, full-time and part-time faculty have automatic access.

For full-time staff who teach part-time, they don’t have automatic access and will need to fill out a request form to get approval.
