Objectifs :

Understand the storage and sharing functionalities of OneDrive, including how to manage document access and permissions effectively.

Chapitres :

Introduction to OneDrive
OneDrive serves as a cloud storage solution designed for the storage and management of personal documents. This platform ensures that all documents uploaded are classified as private by default, meaning only the owner has access.
Document Privacy and Sharing
While OneDrive does not automatically share documents, it provides options for users to create and manage access to their documents. To initiate sharing, users can click on the three dots next to the document line and select the share button.
Sharing Options
When sharing a document, users can choose from four different access options: 1. **Anyone**: This option is the least secure and may be disabled by administration. It allows unrestricted sharing and further distribution of the document. Users can set limits, such as an expiration date or password protection. 2. **People in your organization**: This restricts access to individuals within the same organization. 3. **People with existing access**: Only those who already have access to the document can view it. If shared by a colleague, others without access will not be able to view it. 4. **People you choose**: Access is granted only to specified individuals, regardless of existing permissions. If the link is forwarded, only those with prior access can use it.
Confirming Sharing Settings
After selecting the desired sharing option, users must click the apply button to confirm their choices. The sharing window then provides two main options: - **Copy link**: This allows users to share a link on any digital platform for others to access the document. - **Select names of collaborators**: Users can choose internal or external collaborators to share the document with.
Setting Permissions
Users can specify permissions for collaborators by clicking the button next to the recipient entry area. This allows the owner to determine whether the document is editable or view-only. After setting permissions, clicking the send button will notify selected collaborators via email, granting them direct access to the document.
Managing Sharing Rights
As the document owner, users have the ability to modify or remove sharing rights at any time. This aspect of document management will be explored in further detail in another video of the course.
Conclusion
Understanding how to effectively manage document sharing and permissions in OneDrive is crucial for maintaining privacy and control over personal documents. By utilizing the various sharing options and settings, users can ensure their documents are shared securely and appropriately.

The process of creating a shareable link that allows others to access a document without needing to be directly invited.

00:00:06

All the documents you add to onedrive will be automatically classified as private.

00:00:11

This means that only you, as the owner of the onedrive space,

00:00:15

have access to your documents.

00:00:17

Although sharing is not automatic on onedrive,

00:00:19

it is possible to create and grant access to your document resources.

00:00:24

To do this, click on the three dots present on the documents line.

00:00:27

You can then click on the share button.

00:00:29

The sharing window opens and gives you access to various

00:00:33

sharing features as well as customizable access to your document.

00:00:39

The first thing to check before sharing your document

00:00:42

is to verify whom you want to share it with

00:00:44

here. Four different options are available.

00:00:48

Note that your organisation may disable some options.

00:00:52

The first option.

00:00:53

Anyone is the least secure and the most

00:00:56

likely to be disabled by your administration.

00:00:59

This option allows unrestricted sharing of the

00:01:02

document and even permits further sharing.

00:01:05

However, you can set certain limits by configuring settings here, for example,

00:01:09

by setting an expiration date for viewing the document

00:01:14

or requiring a password for access.

00:01:16

The second option

00:01:18

people in your organisation restricts sharing

00:01:21

to people within your organisation.

00:01:23

The third option

00:01:24

people with existing access allows access to the document

00:01:28

only to those who already have access to it.

00:01:31

If one of your colleagues shares this document,

00:01:34

it cannot be viewed by others who do not have access to it.

00:01:38

Finally, the option

00:01:40

people you choose allows access only to the individuals you specify,

00:01:44

even if others already have access to the item.

00:01:48

In this case, if the link is forwarded,

00:01:50

only people who already have access to the item will be able to use the link.

00:01:55

Once you have made your choice,

00:01:57

simply click the apply button to confirm your selection

00:02:00

and enable the various access levels to the document.

00:02:03

Back on the sharing window, you have two choices.

00:02:07

The option to copy link and paste it on any digital platform,

00:02:11

allowing users to click the link to view the document

00:02:14

or the option to select the names of collaborators,

00:02:17

whether they are internal or external collaborators.

00:02:20

Finally,

00:02:21

you can choose the permissions by clicking the button

00:02:23

to the right of the recipient entry area,

00:02:25

allowing you to specify whether editing is allowed or if the document is view only

00:02:31

click the send button for the selected collaborators to

00:02:34

receive an email with direct access to the document.

00:02:37

As the owner, you can choose to modify or remove sharing rights.
