Microsoft OneNote is a powerful platform that offers great flexibility for Microsoft users to take notes according to different requirements. With the excellent collaboration and online file-sharing support of SharePoint Online, OneNote is even more helpful in team collaboration.

Boost Team Collaboration

By syncing OneNote to SharePoint, multiple users of an organization can access and make changes to the same notebook with auto-updated versions. What’s more, the user-friendly interface makes OneNote a trusted team knowledge base.

All Microsoft SharePoint Online sites have Notebook libraries by default to facilitate collaboration. For easy access by all your team members, the SharePoint Online sites can be used as a central hub for all OneNote notebooks. The most impressive OneNote collaboration happens when a team member modifies one of the OneNote notebooks or uploads files to SharePoint Notebook library.

Access Personal and Business Notes Easily

However, the OneNote can be synced to SharePoint only if you or your team members create the notebook from SharePoint Online or a Shared Library of the OneDrive for Business account. If you create a notebook from your personal OneDrive or the “My files” folder of your OneDrive for Business account, these notebooks won’t be automatically synced to SharePoint anyway.

Therefore, to evade the “OneNote not syncing to SharePoint” issue completely, here we find the best way to let OneNote sync to SharePoint no matter where the OneNote notebook is created from. After that, you can access both the personal and business notebooks easily from SharePoint Online.
