Before you begin

We're rolling out a new, more intuitive product experience. If the screen shown here doesn’t match your product interface, select help for your current experience.

In the new experience, the tools appear on the left side of the screen.

You can easily store and access files from your OneDrive consumer or business file storage account when you’re working in Acrobat or Acrobat Reader on your desktop.

Note:

Microsoft will decommission Office 365 discovery API on November 1, 2019. Acrobat or Reader and OneDrive business integration uses Office 365 discovery API. The decommissioning of the Office 365 discovery API will break the integration. To fix this problem, update your Acrobat/Reader to the latest release – on the Help menu, click Check for updates and follow the onscreen instructions to complete the update process.

Add your OneDrive file storage account

  1. Select Home  from the top left. Then, under Other file storage, select Add file storage, and then select Add under OneDrive. 

    Add OneDrive account

  2. Enter your OneDrive account’s email address in the Sign In dialog box, and select Continue.

    Sign in to OneDrive dialog box is displayed

  3. You may be prompted to choose your account type – personal or business. Select the appropriate option. 

  4. Your default browser opens and prompts you to complete the authentication. Provide your password, and then select Sign in.

  5. Acrobat requests your permission to access your contacts, and manage files. Select Accept/Yes in the confirmation dialog.

  6. Your browser prompts you to return to Acrobat or Acrobat Reader to complete adding your OneDrive account. Select Open Adobe Acrobat.

  7. Your OneDrive account is added in the left pane under Other file storage. A list of files/folders is displayed. All the actions specific to the selected file type are available in the right context pane.

    Your OneDrive files in Home View
