SharePoint is an incredibly useful tool that enables you to store, share, and collaborate on documents and other files with others. It can be accessed via Microsoft Office 365, the cloud-based version of Microsoft Office. This guide will walk you through the steps of creating a SharePoint site in Office 365. Let’s get started!
Step 1: Log into Office 365
The first step is to log into your Office 365 account. Once you have logged in, click on the “SharePoint” option from the list of applications.
Step 2: Create Your Site
Once you are on the SharePoint page, click on the “Create Site” button at the top left corner of your screen. You will then be prompted to enter a name for your site and a description (optional). After entering this information, click on “Create” to proceed.
Step 3: Set Up Your Site
Once your site has been created, you will be taken to its home page where you can start customising it however you like. You can add new web pages, upload files, customise colours and fonts, and much more. It is important to note that all changes that you make here will be visible by anyone with access to the site unless they are set as private or hidden from view.
Step 4: Invite Users
Once your site is set up just how you want it, it’s time to invite users who should have access. To do this, go back to the main page of your SharePoint site and click on “Invite People” from the options at the top right corner of your screen. Here you can enter emails for people who should have access and choose whether they should be given full access or read-only access (you can also give them specific permissions such as editing rights). Click “Send Invites” once you are done inviting people and they will receive an invitation email with instructions on how to log in and gain access to your SharePoint site.
Creating a SharePoint site in Office 365 is relatively straightforward once you know what steps need to be taken. In this guide we have gone through each step required so that at the end of it all, you have your own customised SharePoint site ready for use by yourself or with others! If at any point during setup something isn’t working as expected feel free to contact Microsoft support for help – they’ll be able to assist further if needed! Good luck!
