Contest Brief

I need help from an Excel specialist who can help me identify who has opened a shared Excel document that is located on Onedrive. I am trying to see when an employee accessed it last.

- You'll need to create a solution that can track and log users who access the file.
- The document is accessed by 2-5 people.
- It would be beneficial if you could also provide a report or dashboard that can show this access data in a clear and concise manner.

Please provide examples of similar work you've done in the past, and any relevant experience that you have.

    Dear, are you trying to get the access log of the file that has been accessed in the past? Or looking for a solution so that you can have the access log of the file that will be accessed in the future?

      Yes , you are right. But actually this is the only available option by Microsoft, to log any kind of editing (Data editing or spreadsheet adding) . We may misunderstood your request!! ) I am sorry if my situation not fit with your final file reviewing target . Regards Emad

    I am looking to track who already looked at the file not set it u for the future.

    I have shared the file with an employee that is no longer with us and I want to see if he has been accessing the file since he no longer works for us.

    Is there a way to look at the past 8 months history of who accessed the file ?

      I can give you access to it. As I mentioned above, the previous employee had access to the link as only view, not edit. I want to know if he logged in to see it in the last 8 months.
