Open a specific site in OneDrive for Busines for iOS
I've got a PDF stored in One Drive 4 Business which I'm accessing using the OneDrive App for IOS on my iPad.
The PDF is stored like that:
https://company.sharepoint.com/sites/my-sitename/links.PDF
Within this PDF I've got shortcuts to different JPG's which should be opened in OneDrive app as well:
The example JPG is stored here:
https://company.sharepoint.com/sites/my-sitename/folder1/img.JPG
I've figured out that I'm able to open One Drive App within iOS like this:
ms-onedrive://sites
Like this it's only showing the sites collection in OneDrive app but I'd like to open OneDrive AND open the specific image I've mentioned above, like this:
ms-onedrive://sites/my-sitename/folder1/img.JPG
This URL only opens the site collection but not my image.
Is there a documentation about how to use the ms-onedrive:// shortcut for iOS to access files / folders?
Thank you & best
Sandro
- Hi sani21
Whilst it is referenced in the following article
https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/OneDrive-for-Business/Open-a-specific-site-in-OneDrive-app-for-iOS/td-p/175829
There does not seem to be any official documentation on this. So I have opened a uservoice for it here. Recommend you vote on it.

Hope that answers your question

Thank you, I'm just wondering if this feature (ms-onedrive URL link to a specific file / folder) isn't implemented yet or if I'm just messing up the syntax.
Maybe another user already experienced this issue and found a way to do it?

- I don't think it is implemented yet.
I tested it and the following works
ms-onedrive://files
ms-onedrive://recent
ms-onedrive://shared
However, it does not seem to go into the folders within these sections.
