What Is OneDrive Shared Drives Integration?

OneDrive Shared Drives (also known as shared libraries or shared folders in Microsoft 365) allow multiple users to access and manage files within a shared storage space. Unlike personal OneDrive storage, Shared Drives are owned by the organization rather than individual users.

Using OneDrive Shared Drives provides a collaborative storage solution where backups are accessible to authorized team members, making it ideal for agencies, enterprises, and multi-admin environments.

1. Access Remote Storage Settings

• 1. Log in to your WordPress admin dashboard.

2. Authenticate with Microsoft OneDrive
