Welcome to an article on Groups, which you can create on One Drive on your Office 365 portal. Here we will see how to create new groups on One Drive and its features, which can be used for our daily purposes.
Groups on One Drive will provide you a mailbox, a calendar, a notebook, and a place to upload your files and various other features.
Welcome to the group, I have named it SharePoint Group as you can see from the screen below.
Let’s discuss about group features one by one.
Conversations:
Here under conversations you can mail or share your thoughts to all the members of the group. It will act as a private Outlook mail box for the members of the group. This mail box will only be viewable by the members of the group.
Calendar
Here you can have a private calendar of your SharePoint group and for the members of the group. Again this will only be visible to the members of the group.
Files
The group has a default One Drive link to share your files within the group and among the members. It will work like a SharePoint library with all the members having access to the files.
Notebook
Your groups give you One Note to use this as a notebook and share it with your group members.
