SharePoint & Teams Folder/Directory structure
Hmm.... that makes sense. But this is the default of what a mapped SharePoint drive looks like. This is a brand new SharePoint account, a week old. I don't see a 'Sites' folder. Wish I did, that could be the solution to my madness.
Hi jeffburkholder. If you want to map a network drive to modern team sites, check out Zee Drive as it has http://www.thinkscape.com/Map-Network-Drives-To-Office-365-OneDrive/#TeamsFiles. You can view all your team site files from File Explorer.

Myles Jeffery Thanks for that link. It's kind'a crazy to think that we'd need a 3rd party app to do what the OS should be able to do. I can map a SharePoint Drive, why can't we map Teams drives and be able to set for our Users specific mapping so they can screw things up. But then I guess that's why Teams is created it's the simple way to keep the Users inside Teams and that structure, as IT manager I want to be able to quickly go into the Teams SharePoint structure from a Mapped drive and be able to navigate to any Team, subDir. as needed. Because sometimes things need to be cleaned up and Teams isn't the greatest thing for that.
Again, Teams Dev team sure would be nice to have Shortcuts to SharePoint structure and sub-Folders. Without having to show the whole SharePoint Dir. structure. There's no reason for Marketing Dept. to see Operations archive or structure.

How do I map to the Team folder with the subfolder in the mapped drive? I'd not have to map to each and every folder as their own drive. That would be 7 mappings just for Marketing Dept. Is there a way in Win7Pro to map to the Group's upper level drive? Or is every Channel it's own drive folder location?
