Moving / Copying Files & Folders

Moving files and folders 

When you want to share files with a different team of people, or even give other teams ownership, you can move (or copy) files between OneDrive and a Microsoft SharePoint site. You can move (or copy) files and folders from OneDrive to SharePoint, from SharePoint to OneDrive, within a SharePoint site, or between sites. You can even move files from someone else's OneDrive to your own OneDrive.

1. Select the files or folders that you want to move, and then select Move to.
