Dear respected  Donnie Bridges,

Good day! Thank you for posting to Microsoft Community. We are happy to help you.

As per your description, to incorporate your local files into Office 365 online, you can follow these steps:

Upload to OneDrive:

Sign into your Microsoft 365 online account>Access OneDrive from the app launcher>Click the "Upload" button, then choose "Files" or "Folder" from your local drive that you want to upload>Once uploaded, these files will be accessible from any device with internet access via OneDrive.

Sync with OneDrive:

Install the OneDrive desktop app on your computer if it’s not already installed to sync files between your computer and the cloud.

Benefits of Syncing Local Files to Microsoft 365:

Accessibility: Your files can be accessed from anywhere, on any device.

Collaboration: Multiple users can work on the same document simultaneously.

There's no need to create a specific path from your local drive to Microsoft 365; the OneDrive sync functionality handles this for you. It keeps your local files and cloud files in sync, allowing you to work seamlessly between your local environment and the cloud.

Appreciate your patience and understanding and thank you for your time and cooperation.

Sincerely,

Waqas Muhammad

    Hi Donnie,

    If you are using Office 365 (online) you can use OneDrive to connect that storage:
