    To upload a PowerPoint file to SharePoint, use one of these methods:

    1. Upload from the browser to a SharePoint document library
      1. Sign in to your Microsoft 365 work or school account at the Microsoft 365 portal and go to SharePoint.
      2. Open the site and document library where the presentation should be stored.
      3. Navigate to the destination folder.
      4. Select Upload on the command bar.
      5. Browse to the PowerPoint file on the computer, select it, and confirm to upload.
      After upload, select the file in the library to open it in PowerPoint for the web, where it can be edited and shared.
    2. Upload from PowerPoint (desktop) to SharePoint/OneDrive
      1. In PowerPoint, sign in with the Microsoft 365 account.
      2. Press Alt+Z, S (or use File → Share) to open the Share dialog.
      3. In Upload locations, choose the SharePoint or OneDrive location.
      4. Enter a name for the presentation and select OK.
      5. The file is saved online; it can then be shared or co-authored from SharePoint or OneDrive.
    3. Upload to OneDrive, then use from SharePoint/PowerPoint for the web
      1. Sign in to OneDrive with the Microsoft 365 account.
      2. Go to the target folder and select Upload to upload the PowerPoint file.
      3. Open the file from OneDrive; it will open in PowerPoint for the web, where it can be shared and collaborated on.
