Create files in the shared area for a panel or group

Modified on Wed, 24 Sep at 1:58 PM

Members of the Secretariat will need to create documents and other files in the shared area for a panel or group so that everyone in that panel/group can access them. 


There are two ways to do this: 

  1. Create a file in the shared area
  2. Upload a file from your My files area


Create a file in the shared area

  • On the Hub home page, click on Teams
  • Click on Teams
  • Check you are in the correct team, (if you aren't then click on All teams and find the right one)
  • Click on the General channel, (or whichever channel you want if there are more than one)
  • Click on Files, at the top of the window
  • If you want to create the file in a particular folder then click to open that folder now
  • Click on + New
  • Click on the type of file you want, for example Word document
  • Type in a name for your file
  • Click on Create
  • The file will open in a new tab and you can start working on it
  • It will automatically save in the folder where you created it


Upload a file from your My Files area

Please note, this will move the file from your My files area to the shared area. 

  • From the My files area, (in OneDrive), open the file
  • In the file, click on File
  • Click on Move File
  • Under the Quick access area, click on the relevant group/team
  • If you can't see the one you want, click on More places... and select the relevant group/team and folder 
  • Click on Move here - the file will be moved to that area
