Upload files

OVERVIEW

This article describes how to upload files on Microsoft Teams.

There are a couple ways to upload files to Teams. Once you upload a file, you can also share a link to it. That way, you don't have to upload multiple copies of the same file to share it in different places.

Note: Files uploaded to team/channel will remain within that team regardless of the uploader's membership status. For more details on the file ownership, please visit the file ownership in a team vs. a chat page.

Step 3. Upload your file by either selecting "Browse Teams and Channels", "OneDrive", or "Upload from my computer".
