If you want to share your file, you can:
-
Save it to the cloud and provide a link so that people can view or edit it.
-
Send a copy of your file as an email attachment.
There are advantages to saving your file in the cloud and then inviting people to access it or sharing a link to it in email. When you do so, you can update the file content at any time and others will also be seeing your latest version. Alternatively, you can simply send the document as an email attachment.
Invite people to view or edit your file
-
Open your file, tap the Share icon, and then add recipients' email addresses and, optionally, a short message.
-
If you want to allow others to edit, turn on Can Edit.

Select Send. The outbound message will include a link to the shared file.
