How to Create a File in Onedrive

If you need to create a new file from scratch, you can do it right from within OneDrive for Business.

1. Click the New button.
2. Select a file type.
   

   A new file appears and is ready to populate.

3. Add content to the new file.
4. Click the Name in the title bar.
   
5. Type a file name.

   The changes you make in any of the online Office apps are automatically saved.

6. Close the file.
   

The new file is added to the library, and you know it's new because of the little green icon next to the name.
