How to manage sharing permissions in OneDrive and SharePoint

As a global admin or SharePoint admin in Microsoft 365, you can control how sharing works at the organization level in OneDrive and SharePoint Online. Because each OneDrive is a site (previously called "site collection") within SharePoint, your organization's SharePoint settings and OneDrive settings are related

How to manage sharing in the new SharePoint admin centre

  1. Sign into Microsoft 365 as a global or SharePoint admin
    • If you see a message that you don't have permission to access the page, you don't have Microsoft 365 administrator permissions in your organization
  2. In the left panel, under Admin centres, select SharePoint
    • You might need to select Show all to see the list of admin centres
  3. If the classic SharePoint admin centre appears, click Open
  4. In the left pane of the new SharePoint admin centre, under Policies, click Sharing

Embed a file in a course

To share Office documents (Word, Excel, Powerpoint, Stream, Sway and Forms), save to OneDrive, then you can embed the file into the course.

The embed code must be from any Microsoft 365 app for the web. It isn't currently available from the PC or Mac versions.

How to get the embed code

  1. Save your File to OneDrive.com
    • Storing the File to a public folder online is what allows you to embed it on a web page (Don't save to personal folder)
  2. Open your file in the Microsoft 365 app for the web
  3. On the File tab click Share
  4. Now click Embed
  5. To create the HTML code to embed your file in the web page, click Generate
  6. In the Embed box, under Dimensions, select the correct dimensions for the blog or web page
  7. Under Embed Code, right-click the code, click Copy then close
  8. Paste this code into the 'place URL here' field on OneFile and select 'Next'

(Paste the code directly from Microsoft 365 to OneFile, rather than via a third party e.g. Notepad, as this can impact the formatting and means the code won't work)
