Copy Your OneNote Notebook to Your Cornell OneDrive or a Cornell Team
This article applies to: Microsoft Teams
Before starting this process, decide on the destination for the copy of your OneNote notebook.
- If the notebook will be only for your use, copy it to your OneDrive.
- If it will be a shared notebook, use Microsoft Teams to first create a team where others will access the notebook. Using Teams prevents the data from being deleted if someone leaves Cornell, which can happen when the notebook is owned by an individual account rather than a team.
When creating a new team, be sure to choose type “Other.” “Staff” or “Class” teams have some limitations when copying OneNote notebooks, such as not being able to be added as a tab to the top of a channel.
The following steps must be completed using OneNote Online. If you use the OneNote desktop app, open the notebook, select in the top right corner, choose then paste the link in your web browser.
- From OneNote Online, click your notebook name dropdown in the center. In this example it is called Meeting Notes.
- You should now see the notebook file. Right click the file and choose .
- Choose in the bottom left to select your team you created previously. Alternatively, you can copy to your individual OneDrive by selecting . You should only choose OneDrive if you do not plan on sharing this notebook.
- After selecting your team, choose the channel folder you wish to copy to. Most likely this is the channel folder.
- Click .
- The notebook should appear in the tab of your team. It is accessible by anyone who is a member of the team.
If this is a new team, it may take several hours to appear in If you are in a rush, you can create a folder in the team and add it to your Favorites (for example, Temp folder in the image below).
