Outlook: can't navigate to SharePoint
Hello, On outlook, why is it that when I want to attach a file that is on SharePoint online, I can't navigate to the file in question?

This is not supported. There are some alternatives:
- install a 3rd party add-in for Outlook (https://collab365.com/10-best-sharepoint-email-management-software/)
- use OneDrive for Business (and sync the files of interest to your local machine)
- manually download the files from SharePoint to your local computer and then attach them to the email
- use SharePoint apps (browser-based) that allow attaching SharePoint documents to a new email (https://www.slimapplications.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/EmailManagerMailItemsSeparateFiles.png) Caveat: this only works for a new email and not for an existing email
