The Relationship between Microsoft Teams and SharePoint: Understanding the Integration
Summary
TLDRThis video by Daniel Anderson explores the relationship between Microsoft Teams and SharePoint, clarifying the common misconception that files are stored within Teams. It explains that every Team has an associated SharePoint site, where files are actually stored. The video demonstrates how files are accessed through Teams but reside in SharePoint, and how creating a new channel in Teams automatically creates a corresponding folder in SharePoint's document library. It also covers how to add additional document libraries as tabs within Teams for easier access to the entire document structure.
