   • If you choose Allow Editing, recipients can use Office Online to edit Office documents without signing in to make other changes (like adding or deleting files in a folder) recipients need to sign in with a Microsoft account
   • If you pick Allow Editing and a recipient forwards the message, anyone who receives it will also be able to edit the item you’re sharing. People with edit permissions can also invite others to have edit permissions to the item.
   • Those with Allow Editing permission have full rights to delete a file.
   • Do not allow editing (uncheck box), that means people you invite can view, download or copy the files you share.
   • Permissions for any person can also be changed later.
5. If you want, type a message to be included with an email that’s sent to all invitees.
6. When you are finished adding invitees and assigning permissions, click Send.

Sharing a Folder:

Sharing a folder makes it simple to manage a collection of shared documents and gives you a convenient way to distribute many copies to multiple recipients at once.

All files contained in a shared folder are also shared automatically. The folder share permissions are carried over to any document that is moved into a shared folder.

The exact process is used to share folders as it is to share documents. If you want to limit access to particular files, you might assign individual files various sharing permissions.

Change or remove share permissions:

Select the file or folder, click Share, then select the Shared with tab to modify the share permissions. The list of recipients and their licenses will be shown under the Shared with the account.

Select the desired consent by clicking the drop-down menu next to each user (Edit, view, stop sharing). Select the stop sharing option at the bottom of the window to stop sharing the document with everyone on the list.

View Documents shared with you:

Go to the Navigation Pane in your library window and select “Shared with me” to browse and access documents other users have shared with you. By doing this, a window listing all of the shared documents with you will appear, allowing you to open and edit them.

This list can be sorted using the different columns. However, as this is a virtual folder (i.e., a list of links to other people’s files in reality), you will be unable to organize it using conventional file management (create new folders, move files, etc.)
