Workplace allows you to store your work files on our servers so you can access them anytime and anywhere, securely, as per your security profile and policies.
Sign in to Workplace for Windows or macOS, then click the 
icon, which will take you to Workplace for Browsers.
Access Your Files
There are several different pathways to access your files in Workplace for Browsers. You can quickly access your Recent files and Starred Files & Folders from the Launch page.
To view all of your files and folders, click Files on the left sidebar of the Launch page.
Here you’ll see your Personal folder, your Shared folders, and your Secure Downloads folder (Hybrid only).
Personal: This folder is labeled with your name and can't be shared. This is where you store any files or folders that are meant just for you, such as expense reports and presentations.
Company: This is the primary folder for your company that contains files and folders meant for all users, including internal documents and pictures from your holiday party.
Shared Folders: These folders are shared by you with co-workers and guests, or with you by your coworkers and company manager. For example, your department head might share the department folder with the team, such as Meeting Materials and Quarterly Reports. Also, you might have clients outside the firm who need to share or edit documents, and you can invite them to a shared folder.
Secure Downloads folder (Hybrid only): Files that you download within a hosted browser can be found in this folder, and not in your local Downloads folder. This is a temporary repository and we recommend that you move your downloaded files to another folder as a best practice, especially if you need to share the file.
