Microsoft's Shared With Me

On This Page

Overview

In Microsoft Office 365 and Microsoft OneDrive for Business, a user can share a file or folder with another user, which will create metadata that populates a view in the user's Microsoft OneDrive for Business account. This is called Shared With Me, and it will provide links to the content. This allows a user to easily navigate to all the content available to them. When DryvIQ uses CSOM calls to set permissions on content, this metadata is automatically populated; no additional configuration is needed. This functionality cannot be turned off in CSOM. For consistency, it also cannot be turned off when using the migration API (batch mode).

Expected Behavior

When Add permissions or Prefer permissions on the source is defined for a job, the following behavior is expected for the Share With Me feature:

  • Shared With Me view on Microsoft OneDrive for Business should be populated with files that are shared with the user across other Microsoft OneDrive for Business accounts.

  • Shared With Me view on Microsoft OneDrive for Business should be populated from files shared via team sites on the main Microsoft SharePoint instance.

  • Permissions should be correct on the shared files.

  • User should be able to share the files/folders with additional users through the Microsoft OneDrive for Business/SharePoint user interface.

  • Shared With Me should be populated from libraries created by DryvIQ when it shares the files.

 

The Date Shared and Shared By column will not be populated at this time.

Supported Platforms

  • Microsoft Office 365

  • Microsoft OneDrive for Business

  • Microsoft SharePoint 2013 (CSOM only)

  • Microsoft SharePoint 2016 (CSOM only)

 

Configuration options are not available. The feature is automatic with permissions configuration and cannot be disabled.
