00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,981
You're about to send a workshop agenda from OneDrive in Outlook,

2
00:00:03,981 --> 00:00:07,557
but the link may let people edit or fail to open.

3
00:00:07,557 --> 00:00:10,483
Start with an unsent draft and the fictional agenda.

4
00:00:10,483 --> 00:00:14,709
We'll inspect the linked item's access choice, confirm it is a

5
00:00:14,709 --> 00:00:18,610
cloud link rather than a separate attachment, and read any recipient warning.

6
00:00:18,610 --> 00:00:21,861
The target is a view-only setting checked before sending.

7
00:00:22,461 --> 00:00:26,551
Use a permitted OneDrive demo file called Harbor Workshop Agenda —

8
00:00:26,551 --> 00:00:30,232
Practice.txt and start a new Outlook web message.

9
00:00:30,232 --> 00:00:35,957
Enter only the placeholder recipient from the practice sheet and keep the draft unsent.

10
00:00:35,957 --> 00:00:40,456
The exercise is about checking access before delivery, so no message

11
00:00:40,456 --> 00:00:42,910
or invitation must leave the account.

12
00:00:43,510 --> 00:00:47,643
In the draft choose Attach, then select the file from OneDrive.

13
00:00:47,643 --> 00:00:51,777
Outlook on the web can attach it as a link to

14
00:00:51,777 --> 00:00:55,534
the shared file; a copied attachment behaves differently because each

15
00:00:55,534 --> 00:00:57,037
recipient receives separate bytes.

16
00:00:57,037 --> 00:01:01,547
Confirm the item is labelled as a OneDrive link before changing access.

17
00:01:02,147 --> 00:01:06,391
Open More actions on the linked item and choose Manage access.

18
00:01:06,391 --> 00:01:11,021
Look for a view-only option such as Recipients can view, depending

19
00:01:11,021 --> 00:01:13,336
on the account and organizational policy.

20
00:01:13,336 --> 00:01:17,581
If the choice is unavailable, stop and record the actual options

21
00:01:17,581 --> 00:01:21,439
instead of promising a permission that the account cannot set.

22
00:01:22,039 --> 00:01:25,912
Outlook may flag a link when its access check finds that

23
00:01:25,912 --> 00:01:28,025
an entered recipient cannot open it.

24
00:01:28,025 --> 00:01:31,898
Treat a red warning as a reason to revisit the link

25
00:01:31,898 --> 00:01:35,066
or recipient, not as an invitation to send anyway.

26
00:01:35,066 --> 00:01:39,292
With a placeholder address, the result is a draft-level setting check,

27
00:01:39,292 --> 00:01:41,052
not a real recipient test.

28
00:01:41,652 --> 00:01:46,893
Read the linked file name, the selected access level, and the unsent state together.

29
00:01:46,893 --> 00:01:51,386
A view-only selection means the draft intends to grant reading rather

30
00:01:51,386 --> 00:01:55,878
than editing; it does not prove a recipient has opened the file.

31
00:01:55,878 --> 00:02:01,119
Use a separately authorized test account if actual delivery and access must be verified.

32
00:02:01,719 --> 00:02:06,470
The draft contains one OneDrive link to Harbor Workshop Agenda — Practice.txt.

33
00:02:06,470 --> 00:02:10,824
Its selected access level is Recipients can view, or the closest

34
00:02:10,824 --> 00:02:15,178
view-only option the account offers, and the message remains unsent.

35
00:02:15,178 --> 00:02:19,533
That setting tells you what is configured; it cannot prove a

36
00:02:19,533 --> 00:02:21,512
real recipient opened the file.

37
00:02:21,512 --> 00:02:26,263
If Outlook flags a recipient, resolve the warning before an authorized send.
