NOTE: Workspace 2.0 will be decommissioned on October 29, 2021. Faculty and staff who currently use Workspace 2.0 as a storage solution need to migrate all of their files off of the service and to another UBC supported storage service before October 29, 2021. To ensure that data you have stored on this service is not lost, please migrate your files to the data storage solution appropriate to the content of the file being migrated.
OneDrive is a new personal cloud storage at UBC that keeps files and folders in sync between your computer and the cloud. OneDrive is FIPPA compliant and is the replacement for the UBC Workspace service. It will keep track of additions, changes or deletions in your local OneDrive folder with the OneDrive cloud storage and vice versa. Another feature is the sharing of files and folders to other users, including those who are not part of UBC.
To enable sync on your device, you may have to install the OneDrive desktop applications, with the steps differing for Windows and Mac OS. The login username for UBC OneDrive is your firstname.lastname@ubc.ca alias with your CWL password.
