The best way this can be done is through a 2-step process: Copying the Folder link from your OneDrive, then sharing it via the URL Activity in your eClass course. Please see step-by-step instructions (with screenshots) below and carefully follow them:
Copying the link to the OneDrive Folder
- Sign in to your OneDrive
- Locate the folder you want to share
- Click on the ellipses (1) beside the folder you want to share
- Select Copy link (2) from the drop-down menu, as you can see on the screenshot below.
-
A pop will show up at this point, indicating that the link has been copied and that people with existing access can use this link.
- Another pop-up will then appear. Select the level of access desired - People in York University, Only people with existing access, People you choose:
- Click Apply, then click the x button to close the pop-up
Pasting the link to the OneDrive Folder in your eClass course
