How to Share Files or Folders in Sharepoint with people outside of NDN

 

It is very easy to share files and folders in sharepoint with collaborators outside of NDN.  This function is easier and more intuitive then DropBox and is cheaper!  (Dropbox is expensive and Sharepoint is already paid for in the Microsoft subscription).  


NDN is moving away from dropbox, and we ask that you use Sharepoint as your new go-to.


If you need assistance migrating from DropBox, please reach out to IT.


So, lets say you are in a Sharepoint Site, and wish to share a folder, such as “Assets” Below.

 


Simply highlight the folder, and click the “Share”       icon.

 

When you see the “Send Link” Panel, drill into the “People IN Nevada Donor Network”

 

 

 

 

 

 

You will then see the Link Setting Page.


Choose “Specific People” and decide of you want to Allow editing or not.


Please show caution with the “Anyone with the link” setting as this can go viral.

You have now safely shared the File or Folder.


Remember: You are accountable for what you share, just like in dropbox.
