Collaborative document editing in Teams and SharePoint is a huge time saver \u2013\u00a0instead of trying to merge multiple versions of a document together, we can all<\/em> edit the same document (we can even edit it at the same time). OneDrive offers the same benefit, but it\u2019s a bit of a hassle going into OneDrive, setting up sharing, and then sending people a link to the document. But Outlook handles this for you.<\/p>\n

I have a private file saved to my OneDrive for Business space.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

In your message, select \u2018Attach\u2019 and then \u2018Cloud locations\u2019.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

You will see your OneDrive for Business files \u2013 select the file(s) that you want to share and click \u201cNext\u201d.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

You will see the file as an attachment to the message \u2013 the OneDrive cloud logo lets you know that the \u2018attachment\u2019 is actually a link to a OneDrive document. Address and send the message as you normally would.<\/p>\n

Check OneDrive again, and you will see that the document is shared.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The recipient will see an attachment to the message, and they will be able to view and edit the file.<\/p>\n
