Frequently Asked Questions

Channel Files: How do I open multiple documents at the same time with in teams?

Using the Channel Files Sync Option, you should have access to the files in teams, as if it were a regular drive. So you can then open up multiple documents at the same time through that.

Channel Files: How do we setup Read-Only folders?

There are methods to setup Read-Only folders with in Teams files, but that requires some work in the back end to do so. If you need such a folder, please contact the Solution Center with your request and we will work to set that up for you.

NOTE this is different from setting up a restricted folder that only certain people would have access to. That again would be a request to the Solution Center to help setup.

Channel Files: How do we setup a restricted folder, that only certain people in the department can access?

The Team Site Owner can setup a Private Channel that would be only accessible to those specified users. With in that Private Channel will be a Files option specifically for that private channel.

Channel Files: How do I allow student workers access to the files and folders in my Department Site?

Student workers should not have access to your Departmental Teams Site. If you need to work with Student Workers, let the Solution Center know, and we will setup a different Teams Site so that you can collaborate with your Departmental Student Workers.
