Issue/Question
How do I upload and share a file through Microsoft OneDrive?
Environment
Resolution
Sharing files to others that do not have addresses ending in @topper.wku.edu or @wku.edu is not permitted for the security of WKU data.
OneDrive has a maximum uploaded file size of 10GB. It is a useful way for students to share files with instructors that are larger than the 250MB file size limit present in Blackboard.
- Log into your WKU email.
- Open the App Launcher icon.
- Under Apps, click OneDrive.
- Click Upload and then select Files.
- Navigate to the file you wish to upload.
- Once the file is done uploading, hover your mouse over it within OneDrive and click the Share button.
- Enter the email addresses you wish to share the file to.
- Click the pencil icon by the individual's name and change to Can edit or Can view as desired.
- If necessary, add a personal message that the recipient will see along with the file link.
- Click Send to share the file.
