Share a file
If you want to share your file, you can:
-
Save it to the cloud and invite people to view or edit it.
-
Save it to the cloud and send a link to the file.
-
Send a copy of your file as an email attachment.
The advantage of saving your file in the cloud and then inviting people to access it or sharing a link to it in email is that you can update the file content at any time and everyone you share it with will have the latest version. If you don't want to save your file in the cloud, you can send it as an email attachment.
