Scenario/Use case:

This article covers how to install and configure OneDrive on macOS.

Instructions:

These steps assume you have signed into the Apple app store with your personal Apple ID.

1. Launch Apple app store and search for “Microsoft OneDrive”.
      
   
2. Click on "GET", "INSTALL", and then "OPEN".
      
   
   
3. You will be prompted to sign into Microsoft.  Enter your Services account username and include “@services.fnal.gov” (i.e., [username]@services.fnal.gov) and click “Next”.  You will be redirected to Fermilab’s Single-Sign-On (SSO) page.
       
   
   
4. Type your enter your username, Services password, and then click "Sign on".
      
   
   
5. For this step, there are two paths that may be presented to you:
   
   • Yubikey - If you have a Yubikey and it is plugged into your computer, you will be presented with a prompt to select your Yubikey certificate. Select the "FERMI Sub CA" certificate and click "OK". You then be presented with the Smart Card window where you enter your Yubikey PIN and click "OK". NOTE: If you do not want to use your Yubikey, click "Cancel" and you will be guided through the RSA process below.
      
     
     
   • RSA - If you do not want to use your Yubikey or do not have a Yubikey, you will be prompted to provide an RSA passcode as part of the "Two-Factor Authentication" requirement. Enter your passcode and click "OK". If you are unsure how to generate your passcode, please review "How to use RSA hardware token to generate a passcode" or "How to install and use RSA soft token to generate a passcode".
     
     
     
6. On the next screen, click "Choose OneDrive Folder Location".
      
   
   
7. Next determine where you want OneDrive to use as it's home directory.  It usually defaults to "/Users/[USERNAME]/OneDrive - Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory" but you may change the location.  When you are satisfied, click "Next".
      
   
   
8. Click "Next".
      
   
   
9. Click "Next".
      
   
   
10. Click "Next".
       
    
    
11. Click "Later".
        
    
    
12. The final screen, click "Open my OneDrive folder".
        
    
    
13. OneDrive is now configured...
