Sharepoint link shared with me does not seem to be working

Copper Contributor

Hi,

 

With my new job I was shared a link to my personal gmail address for a folder of documents I need to become familiar with. This was done with an invite link to a Sharepoint folder the documents are kept in to my gmail. When I click the link it prompts me to log into my outlook account. When I log into my account with the same gmail address as the one the link was shared to I do not see the folder that was shared to me. I tried logging into my gmail on outlook and clicking the link again, to the same result.

Both times what I see is a web based outlook page with no emails, no documents shared on the “shared with me” tab of one drive and the only documents present are the cloud backup of my personal computer on one drive. I tried downloading the sharepoint app and logging in this way, but it says I need a school or work email and I can’t log in with a personal email address.

 

It’s important I be able to view these documents. I would appreciate any help telling me how to access them.
