Accessing a Shared Folder from OneDrive

Hi


My wife has a Macbook from work, and she uses OneDrive for her work stuff. We also have our own OneDrive account through our Office365 subscription. She's currently using DropBox to store her personal stuff, but it's costing £10/month, which seems a lot when we have lots of storage space in our personal OneDrive account.


I've created a shared folder for her in OneDrive for her to move all her DropBox content into, but how does she set up the folder in Finder? She likes being able to drag and drop files to DropBox in Finder. She already has her work account set up in OneDrive so she can drag and drop as required, but I can't see a way of adding the shared perosnal account to Finder.


Anyone got any ideas? I'm good with Windows and Linux, but the Apple OS is not one I am familiar with.

MacBook Pro (2020 and later)
