The best way to share file between users
Hi All,
What is the best way to set OneDrive up to allow multiple users to see the one folder. (similar to the old way of multiple users accessing the one Folder share in a network)
I have tried creating the OneDrive folder under User A, and then sharing that to User B.
User B has tried to log into OneDrive as User A, but that causes problems, when she is running Office 2016 Click to Run, as User B.
Both users comment that they do not see the same information, and the sync is not working properly.
Should we move items to Groups, or am I missing something simple
Thanks in Advance

- You've answered your own question - the best way to achieve this is to use Office 365 Groups as multiple people can synchronise that library locally.

thanks for your quick reply.
Are you then able to sync those files to the desktop using the onedrive app?
Absolutely! Here's a screenshot of mine, all of which are in Groups:
(the X on my OneDrive for Business is due to an invalid character that I'm yet to fix)
