3 Introduction The is designed to help you through the process of configuring and managing the Office Connect Online Manager. AvePoint Office Connect allows you to: Share local files (files on your computer and attachments in new s) with other users. Using the Quick Share feature, you have complete control over who accesses a file and what kind of actions you will allow users to take on this file. A copy of the file remains on the original location, and depending upon the permissions you configure, the file in the selected Quick Share location is free to be edited, reviewed, or commented on for as long as you require. Upload local files (files in Windows File Explorer, s and attachments in Outlook) to SharePoint libraries, lists, and folders. Users who have sufficient permissions to the SharePoint libraries, lists, or folders will be able to view and/or edit the files. When uploading a file to SharePoint, you can change the content type and apply metadata tags, allowing it to be searched for and classified easily. AvePoint Office Connect also integrates with AvePoint Perimeter Online, which allows internal users to share files with external users when the selected Quick Share location is a SharePoint Online node or share SharePoint Online files by using the Quick Share button in the Office Connect interface. For information on AvePoint Perimeter Online not covered in this guide, see the AvePoint Perimeter Online User Guide. 3
