Overview
This article explains how to integrate your school's OneDrive with your Juniper Website, letting users access content stored in OneDrive, for example, images and links to documents, directly from your website. When your website has been configured, you can:
- Access the OneDrive files that you want to add / link to from your website when you add content to the page.
- Directly link to OneDrive files without downloading and re-uploading them to your website.
When configured, any logged-in user can access all content in the linked OneDrive account. For this reason, we recommend you create a dedicated OneDrive account for Website content, rather than use an individual staff member's OneDrive account that may hold sensitive information you wouldn't wish to share with other members of staff.
Prerequisites
- You will need the login credentials for your OneDrive account (Username and Password).
Instructions
- Select Settings from the Website tab:
- Select Website Settings:
- From the Websites Settings window, scroll down and select Microsoft OneDrive:
- Select Authorise access to OneDrive:
- You will be directed to the Microsoft account / login page. Follow the instructions provided on screen to select / enter your school's OneDrive account details.
- Once you have successfully entered your school's OneDrive account details, you will be returned to the Website Settings window,where the message OneDrive access has been successfully authorised is displayed:
- Select Save:
Outcome
The files in your school's OneDrive are now available in your website. You can add images and links to files / documents. Files that are linked to will be displayed as PDFs to maximise security and accessibility.
It is only when you go to add files / images that you will be able to see your OneDrive files. They are not visible, for example, in folders when you browse the File Manager.
