Upload Files and Folders to a Library

Here we'll show you how to upload files from Explorer to your Document Library. There are two ways to so this, the first is using the upload button you will see on SharePoint and the second is by using the drag and drop functionality.

Upload Button

1. Open the SharePoint site library.
   
   
2. Click Upload at the top of the documents library.
   
   
3. In the Add a document dialog box, you can click Browse to upload an individual file. Depending on the version of SharePoint you're using, you may also be able to upload multiple files by holding down either the CTRL or Shift key, and selecting more than one file.
4. When you've selected the file or files to upload, click OK.

Drag and Drop

1. Open the document library from the site contents.
   
   
   
   
2. On your computer click Start and then click File Explorer.
   
   
3. Navigate to the folder with the documents that you want to upload.
4. Drag the files to the space in the SharePoint library where it says drag files here. The library should display "Drop here" when you hover the file over it.
   
   
5. You should see your files appear in the document library as they come in.
