OneDrive: Unable to add shortcut for shared files under "My Files"

There are certain files that are shared with me in SharePoint. I have the editable rights for these files. I need to access these files in tableau. So I am trying to create a shortcut of these files ...

PriyankaChhikaraI am an IT administrator with 60 users of 365 Sharepoint and I have some users with this problem. Some can see the "shortcut to My Files" option, and others cannot. I don't know the reason or the solution.

José Antonio Zapata Yerga Same problem here.

I'm getting crazy over this. I manage 10 users, it's working for 9 of them and there's just one that can't get the button "Add shortcut to My Drive" to appear.

  jhensen I think Microsoft is just rolling it out really slowly. I still can't do it but I know others who can. It's annoying.

    2022 and I'm still having the same problem. How slowly could they go. This is so frustrating.

  Hi jhensen
  
  My problem was solved days later without any action. I think the users are updated by Microsoft in order, but I don't know the order.
  
  Good luck!
