Is it possible to remove a cloud storage connection without removing the underlying files?

Hi everyone,

 

recently I added our SharePoint as cloud storage to one of our teams (when in fact I just wanted to link the Files-tab to the SharePoint). Now the files tab shows next to the teams file also the general files on the SharePoint (including files from others teams).

 

After realising my error I wanted to fix my error, but realized that is no to configure the cloud storage in any way (e.g. to point it to another folder further down the line) or to remove the connection. The only option available to me is "Delete", which I'm kinda afraid to click because I only want to remove the connection and dont want to delete the whole Sharepoint.

 

Now my question is, what does this ominous "Delete" button actually delete? The connection, the SharePoint, my (imaginary) cat, ...?

  • You wont be deleting the sharepoint library or any files within it !! it’s just the sharepoint library tab that you will remove! So it’s alright :)

      I don’t know if I understood you correctly but it seems like you added another library which is connected to another team?

        Well I think I might have...

        We have a team with multiple subteams for each customer. In one of those subteams I think I added the mainteams files as the SP-connection, because in the subteam I have the subteams files and then a folder with SP-icon names <mainteam>_Documents.
