I work with an organization that has a Microsoft 365 for Business account. They have shared a folder with me, and I receive the notification email, but it ends up being in it's own space and not attached to the Microsoft Account associated with the email address. How can they share the folder with me so that it shows up in my OneDrive when I log in instead of just under this special URL? I'd like to have the folder actually sync to my local drive, but it never shows up in my actual OneDrive account, so...
Help?

Hi @John Straffin ,
OneDrive for Personal and OneDrive for Business are completely different.
We could generate links for shared folders from OneDrive for Business and they can be seen via the links, however they will not be shown up in our OneDrive for Personal.
As trevorseward said, sharing folders between OneDrive for Business account will work well.

I have the same issue too, my OneDrive for business shares a folder to OneDrive personal, and I can't see the "shared with me" when logged into OneDrive for personal account.
Now I run into your question and all answers here, I can be sure that this can't work
