What is OneDrive?

OneDrive is a Microsoft cloud storage service that lets you store your personal files in one place, share them with others, and get to them from any device connected to the Internet.

Faculty, staff, and students can store their documents, pictures, videos, and more. You can access your OneDrive account from your computer by signing into the OneDrive application with your StarID and password.

Why Use OneDrive?

You can share and collaborate with others and access these files from any device using Office 365. You can share documents by adding collaborators or by sharing a link to the document.
