Answer
If you need to share a file with your instructor or have a group project and need everyone to be able to work on the file, you can email the file or create a link to it. This process allows the person sharing to decide how to give permissions to the people they are sharing with.
Log in to OneDrive using your NWTC ID# @nwtc.edu (for example, 12345678@nwtc.edu) Note: This is not your myMail email address.
Locate the file you wish to share, right-click on the file name, then click Share.
On the screen that appears, you can share the file via email or share the link to the file.
Sharing via Email
Enter the email address of the person you want to send the document to. Use the Add more feature to add additional addresses if needed. Use the Permissions icon to change the permissions on how the file will be used by the person you are sharing it with. Change the permissions from Can view (Can't make changes) to Can edit (Make any changes), if you want others to be able to edit the file. Another option is Can't download (Can view, but not download). You may add a message to the recipient before clicking Send.
