What You Should Learn

  • Cloud productivity includes email, storage, sync, collaboration, identity, and licensing.
  • Sync settings control whether files are local, online-only, or downloaded on demand.
  • Identity sync connects accounts across directories and cloud apps.
  • License assignment controls app/service access.
