OneDrive: Unable to add shortcut for shared files under "My Files"
Mike Williams Thank you for your reply. I was referring to the "My Files" option in OneDrive.
I can connect Tableau to only those files which appear under "My Files" In OneDrive.
PriyankaChhikara Just confirming that the folder is selected with a blue check-mark as that's not shown in your screenshot.

I'm shifting my team to OneDrive, the same thing we are trying to figure out for a few days.
The option to add shortcut does not appear.Pavel_K1165 Mike Williams - I am told that this feature to add a shortcut in OneDrive for business will be available worldwide by the end of September 2020. Hopeful that one more week and we should see it.

PriyankaChhikara I'm having the same issue, it's now late october and nowhere is there an option to add shortcut to my onedrive when someone external shares a folder with me. All i can do is sync it which brings a separate sharepoint link for their ORG into my file expolrer.
Mike Williams Hi Mike, even if the folder is selected, "Add Shortcut" option doesn't show up. Neither in the three dots menu nor on the top.
