Hi!<\/p>\n
We have a no-cloud policy, except for some applications like Teams. But in Teams, file sharing is disables since we can’t use Onedrive for business.<\/p>\n
We have Onedrive On-prem, and I want the users to use this. My quesion: Is it possible to use file sharing in Teams with onedrive on-prem?<\/p>\n
I’ve tried to google it but can’t find a conrete answer.

Well, I don’t see who that has to do with my question, but ok. we all have E5 licenses. You can’t use file sharing with Teams if you don’t use Onedrive for business since it used that functionality. That points to my first question - Do someone know if you can use Teams with Onedrive for business on-prem? (which some users have)<\/p>\n

I could be wrong on this, but I think what you’re looking for is not possible unless you’re syncing your SharePoint server to SharePoint Online.

We have E5 and BP. Like I wrote, we ARE using teams today, thats why I’m saying it’s irrelevant what kind of licenses we have. The only thing we are missing is the file sharing functionality through Teams, and for that we need Onedrive for business. We have that, but on prem with sharepoint on prem.<\/p>\n
It’s a big hassle to try to convince the descision makers here, it’s a big company with strict rules.\n\n

Easier…but that is going around or violating your management’s policy ? Coz using Teams is already voilating the no-cloud policy…then still want users to “add-on” sharing of files via Teams ?<\/p>\n
