Who is this article for?

Administrators who want to learn to configure Microsoft 365.

No elevated permissions are required.

This article explains how Microsoft 365 accounts are used to access SharePoint, Microsoft Teams, and OneDrive for Business within the desktop software.

1. Account access

The Microsoft 365 account you are signed in with will be used to access content in SharePoint, Teams, and OneDrive for Business.

The signed-in account is listed in the settings panel. To switch to a different account, select sign out.

Access to multiple tenants is supported. When switching tenants, you will be prompted to select the correct identity for that tenant.

2. Teams support

By default, Teams that a user has access to will appear in the navigation tree.

To disable Teams support, deselect the corresponding checkbox in the settings panel.

This setting can also be configured centrally via the configuration profile.

3. OneDrive for Business support

When enabled, OneDrive for Business will connect for all users.

This setting can also be configured centrally via the configuration profile.

Selecting the checkbox ensures OneDrive for Business is automatically connected and added as a node when saving to SharePoint.
