What is OneDrive for Business?
Microsoft OneDrive for Business is a cloud storage service included in the Microsoft 365 subscription. Unlike the personal version, OneDrive for Business offers advanced collaboration, security, and administration features designed for work teams.
It allows you to save files, create backups, access documents from any device, and share them securely. It is compatible with Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and OneNote, making it a key component for corporate environments.
Three new OneDrive features you should know
Shared files and contacts in one click
You can now easily access all shared files and folders, both inside and outside your organization. You just need to:
- Sign in at portal.office.com
- Open OneDrive from the app launcher
- Go to the Contacts section
This allows you to find important documents without manually searching through every folder in your personal storage.
Recorded meetings accessible from OneDrive
From the Meetings section, you can access all recordings made through Microsoft Teams. This feature allows you to:
- View the time and date of each meeting
- Play the video directly from OneDrive
- Share recordings with your contacts
Perfect for anyone who needs to review content or share it with those who couldn’t attend.
Visual image management with Media Items
The Media Items feature automatically groups your images into a visual space where you can:

Ideal for marketing, design, or any user who works with large volumes of images.
