Create a Shareable Link in OneDrive

Here are instructions to create a link to a file or folder you have stored in OneDrive you can share with internal or external personnel.

1. After you place your file or folder into your OneDrive, right click on the file or folder and select "Share"
   
2. In the popup, click on the dropdown where it says "Anyone with the link can view and edit."
   
3. Review the options here and choose settings that are appropriate. If you want it to be read-only, uncheck "Allow editing". If the document has confidential data, you can choose the option "Specific people" to make sure only certain users can open, regardless if it's forwarded to people that are not specified. When you are finished choosing the correct settings, click the Apply button.
   
4. Click the Copy Link button at the bottom and you will then get a new pop-up saying the link to your document has been coped. You can now paste this link into an email or Teams conversation and share it.
   

If you want to change any of the settings after you have created the link, repeat the steps and it will create a new link with the updated settings.
