[Software] Microsoft Teams is making sharing files a whole lot easier

[EC HTN^]

 

If you're using Microsoft Teams, there's yet another new feature on the way – this one to help with file sharing on the platform. The update will make it easier for users to set permissions around the files stored in Teams, as well as those saved via other Microsoft cloud storage tools.

“Streamline sharing with Microsoft Teams,” the Microsoft 365 roadmap explained. “You can now create a shareable link for any file stored in Teams and directly set the appropriate permissions. Additionally, you can also set permissions for files stored in SharePoint or OneDrive while composing a private chat or starting a channel conversation.”

The new feature is currently listed as “in development” but is scheduled for release this month. Sometimes Microsoft does stagger its rollouts, however, so Teams users shouldn’t get too impatient if they are not able to access the new enhanced sharing tools quite yet.
