Transferring files from sub-folders in server to Teams
PaulConcannon (hey, that's me!)
Ok, so I cracked the code on this one, for the next person who comes across this issue. The secret ingredient is One Drive. One Drive acts as a go-between. You need to copy your folder across to One Drive, and then, while in One Drive, choose to move the folder. You can then pick the channel on the left hand side and drill down to where you want to place the folder. Et Voila! Everything comes across. C'est bon!
Save a step, and just open the Team SharePoint site, go to documents "The Team documents" where you will see the Channel folders such as General in it.
Then at the root "Add to OneDrive". This will add a Folder in your OneDrive Sync folder direct to the Team files. Then you can just directly drag the files to OneDrive Linked folder to your Team, you don't have to go to OneDrive then hope the move to doesn't miss anything etc.
- Chris, I don't know what you mean by "at the root" [in Teams? in SharePoint? in File Explorer?] and I can't find any options "Add to OneDrive." Can you help?
