How do I sync files within Teams with my OneDrive

Question

I viewed a videoin which they claimed it was possible to sync files created within the Teams Files section with my OneDrive. Check out the 20 second mark of  (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UKRHKk2Lovw&feature=youtu.be). 

This is a beneficial feature, as i can then mail merge current information that is being provided to a shared Excel in Teams. 

I do not have a sync option on my Teams File area that was demonstrated in the video. 

Anyone know how to make that feature visible?

Thanks for any help.

Dear Neil,
Thanks for participating in the Microsoft Community. I'm an Independent Advisor and I'll help you.

When you create a Team in Microsoft Teams, it will create a SharePoint site, and a "General" channel, that channel will create a folder in the SharePoint principal library site called "Documents", so if you click in "Open in SharePoint", it will show those files in the Sharpoint library, in there, you will have the option to sync in your computer with the OneDrive client.
