How to Request Access

Everyone with a @ucsf.edu email address has access to SharePoint. SharePoint can be accessed from the app launcher (e.g. Waffleicon) after logging into Office 365. SharePoint sites associated with a Team in Microsoft Teams can be accessed by selecting the Files tab in a channel and then clicking the Open in SharePoint button.

NOTE: SharePoint sites associated with a Team (in Microsoft Teams) are created automatically when the Team is created.

Description
