Getting Started

Open the SharePoint app in Microsoft 365.

How do I sign in?

1. Open https://m365.cloud.microsoft/apps/ and sign in using an account in the following format: učo@muni.cz (for example, 123456@muni.cz). You will be redirected to the MUNI single sign-on page.
2. On the single sign-on page, enter your UČO and primary password. This is the same password you use to sign in to INET.
3. In Microsoft 365, open the SharePoint application.

Navigate your team storage sites

SharePoint is divided into individual sites that may belong to teams, projects, or departments. Each site contains a document library where you can upload your work files.

In the "Frequent sites section" (1), look for the name of your team, project, or department. If you cannot see it, select "See all" (2). Then open the relevant site where you need to upload your work data.

Choose or create a location for your files

In the left-hand menu, open "Documents" (3). This is the document library, where files are stored.

Review the existing folders and open the one that matches the content of the data you want to upload.

• If there is no suitable folder, select "New → Folder", enter a clear name, and open the folder.
• Do not create duplicate folders. If you are unsure where the files belong, contact the site owner or your team leader.

Upload files or folders

You are now in the destination folder where you want to store your work data. In the top menu, select "+ New or Upload (4)", then choose:

• Files to upload individual files.
• Folder to upload an entire folder, including all its contents.

Then browse the locations on your computer and upload the files you have decided to back up:

• 📁 Desktop
• 📁 Documents
• 📁 Downloads (if you store work-related files there)
• 📁 Any custom folders where you save your work

You’re done — repeat if necessary.

Confirm your selection and repeat the process as needed until all the files you want to keep protected have been uploaded to SharePoint. You can monitor the upload progress in the upper-right corner of the screen.

The upload time depends on the amount of data and the speed of your internet connection. Do not close your browser or switch off your computer while the upload is in progress.

Once the transfer is complete, check that:

• all files and folders are visible in SharePoint,
• no important data is missing,
• the selected files can be opened—you can test a few of them at random.

Let’s get started

You can save your work files directly to the OneDrive folder on your computer and work with them just like regular files. When you are connected to the internet, they automatically sync with cloud storage in the background, so they remain continuously available on your other devices as well. If your computer is lost, damaged, or compromised, the latest synced versions of your files will remain available in OneDrive.

Search for the OneDrive app

Type “OneDrive” (1) in the search box on the taskbar, then click the “OneDrive” (2) app in the search results.

Sign in to the OneDrive app

Enter your university email address in the format UČO@muni.cz in the “Email address” field (1), then click “Sign in” (2). On the MUNI sign-in screen, select “Use your password instead”, enter your primary MUNI account password, and click “Sign in”.

If the OneDrive folder opens immediately instead of a sign-in or setup window, the OneDrive client is probably already configured and your files are being synced. In that case, no further setup is required and continue to step 8.

Back up your files

OneDrive will now show the location of the folder that will be synced with your MUNI account. Unless you want to change the location, keep the default setting and click “Next”. In the following step, leave folder backup enabled and click “Start backup”.

In the next steps, always click next:

• Sharing: Click “Next”. You can configure file sharing later directly in the OneDrive – MUNI folder.
• Move files: Click “Next”. You will move files to the OneDrive – MUNI folder later, after selecting the important documents.

File availability

This screen explains how OneDrive indicates file availability. Click “Next” to continue.

Set up the mobile app

At this step, select “Not now”. You do not need to install the mobile app to set up OneDrive on your computer.

Complete the setup

OneDrive setup is complete. Click “Open my OneDrive folder”.

OneDrive folder location on your device

You can find the OneDrive folder in File Explorer (the yellow folder icon on the taskbar), or open it by pressing Windows + E. The folder will be labelled with your account name, for example, “Your Name – MUNI” or “OneDrive – MUNI”.

Select the files you want to upload

Now check the following locations on your computer and upload the files you have decided to back up.

📁 Downloads (if you keep work files there)
📁 Any folders you use to store your work

Simply copy or drag the selected files and folders into your OneDrive folder.

You’re done — repeat if necessary

Once the folder has been set up, you should work with the backed-up files directly in it. Treat it as the main location for creating, editing, and saving documents that you want OneDrive to sync continuously.

For example, you have an important document called “My meeting notes” on your desktop and want to back it up.   

• Move it from the desktop to the OneDrive – MUNI folder.
• Continue editing the document in Word as usual.
• OneDrive continuously syncs your changes online.
• You can later access the document from another computer by signing in to Microsoft 365.

Once the transfer is complete, check that:

• Move it from the desktop to the OneDrive – MUNI folder.
• Drive continuously syncs your changes online.
• Continue editing the document in Word as usual

Let’s get started

Network storage is a general term, and users may have access to several different storage locations. On your computer, it may appear as an additional drive that you can use in much the same way as files stored directly on the device. However, it can also be accessed in other ways.

If you use a centrally managed computer, you will find the Ha-bay network storage in File Explorer as drive O:.

Employees using centrally managed devices usually have access to it automatically, so there is no need to request access. Instructions for working with this storage are provided below.

Connect to the MUNI network

Important: You can use network storage only if access has been set up for you in advance. For details, see the section How do I get access to network storage? (above).

• Network storage is directly accessible only from the university network, including eduroam, MUNI Wi-Fi, and wired connections. If you are working from home, travelling for work, or using another network outside MUNI, first connect via eduVPN.

Connect the network storage to your computer

The procedure varies depending on your operating system:

• For Windows
• For macOS
• For Linux (Ubuntu)
• Using the protocol Samba (SMB)

Upload files or folders

Check the following locations on your computer and upload the files you have decided to back up.

• 📁 Desktop
• 📁 Documents
• 📁 Download files (if you keep work files there)
• 📁 Folders you use to store your work

You’re done — repeat if necessary

Confirm your selection and repeat the process as needed until all the files you want to back up are stored on the network storage. The transfer time depends on the amount of data and the speed of your internet connection. While the transfer is in progress, do not close the browser or turn off your computer.

For reference, we have also included a video showing what the entire process looks like.
