Managing favourite locations
Who is this article for?
Users who want to manage their favourite locations.
No elevated permissions are required.
Favourite locations are personal shortcuts to SharePoint or Office 365, managed individually by each user.
They can be created in either OnePlaceMail or OnePlaceDocs, and are shared across both applications.
Favourites can include:
- SharePoint site collections, sites, libraries, lists, folders, or document sets.
- Locations from hybrid SharePoint environments.
1. Creating a favourite location in OnePlaceMail
- In Outlook, select OnePlaceMail from the menu.
- Click on Favourites.
- Expand the SharePoint node to browse your available SharePoint locations.
- Select the desired site, library, list, or folder, then click Add.
- Click OK.
The location will now appear under Favorites in the Outlook Navigation Pane and in the Save to SharePoint dialog box.
2. Creating a favourite location in OnePlaceDocs
- In the OnePlace Docs Explorer window, select Favourites from the ribbon.
- Expand the SharePoint node to browse connected sites and site collections.
- Select the site, library, list, or folder, then click Add.
- Click OK.
The location will now appear under Favourites in the Outlook Navigation Pane and in the Save to SharePoint dialog box.
3. Removing a favourite location
Favorites can be removed from the navigation tree via a right-click option.
Note: Recent locations can also be removed using a right-click action.
3.1. Further options
When a favorite location is added, the global save settings are applied by default.
It is possible to set custom save settings for the location. These settings apply only to that specific location.
