Store files in a group chat with edit permissions
Hello all,
we almost don't use Channels, but group Chats. Recently we found out, that any document shared in a Group Chat can't be edited because they are saved in personal OneDrive. Such possibility have Channels, because a separate SharePoint storage is created for Channels, but Channel has inconvenient form of conversations... Is it possible to create a separate SharePoint storage for group Chat so that we can centrally grant editing permissions to all chat participants?
Thank you!
Hi Exonix - sharing files in group chats can get a bit messy since each person who has shared would need to ensure the proper permissions were granted from their own OneDrive. If you'd prefer to use SharePoint, you could create a Library on a SharePoint site, set the permissions, and then add it to your group chat using the 'website' option.
Hope that helps.
