Microsoft 365 OneDrive – Access and Share Files

Access OneDrive files in Quercus

Instructors, course staff and students can view their own Microsoft 365 OneDrive files directly in Quercus. The OneDrive menu item is hidden by default, therefore the instructor will need to make it available in the course navigation menu.

NOTE: Instructors and students would see a new folder called Canvas within their OneDrive. This folder contains their course and group directories and files.
