Introduction For FreeWheel, sharing large files and collaborative documents with external (non-FreeWheel/non-Comcast) users can be an issue, as attachments may exceed email size limits and may require affiliated third-party file hosting services. This guide provides step-by-step instructions: 1) for FreeWheel to more easily share approved documentation through Comcast's internal systems (e.g., Microsoft 365, OneDrive/SharePoint); and 2) for FreeWheel clients to access said documentation. The intended audience for this page includes FreeWheel/Comcast employees and clients, as both must complete the process below together. Set Up Cloud Access A guest account must be associated with the external recipient's email address to share documentation. "Guest" refers to non-FreeWheel/non-Comcast users, or clients.   Instructions for Employees and Guests . The following steps are prerequisites for employees.  Please complete this process before contacting the guest.  Connect to the Comcast network In office or F5 VPN Navigate to  myComcastAccess Select User Type:  Cloud Only Guest Account  and click  Next Complete fields and click  Submit Enter the user's external, corporate email address Note:  United States  is the only option at present, but it will work for any location The guest must click  Accept Invitation  in their welcome email, then follow the setup instructions See “Instructions for Guests” tab above It may take up to one week for request approval (before the guest receives the invitation).  To review the status of your request, manage users, view profiles, and other options: Navigate to  https://mycomcastaccess.comcast.com/ Click the menu icon (left side) Click the Identity & Access Management dropdown menu Guests, please click  Accept Invitation  in your welcome email: Guests will be prompted to complete an authentication process to confirm identity, either a call/text message or an authentication app.   Once guests have authenticated and been approved, cloud-based (e.g., SharePoint) files and folders may be shared. Sharing OneDrive Documents This section includes instructions for FreeWheel/Comcast to complete. Each internal system has a process to share approved documents with authenticated guests. This section reviews the process for sharing from an internal OneDrive (SharePoint) folder. Sharing and Accessing Files Locate and select the OneDrive file/folder you wish to share Click Share Enter the authenticated recipient’s external email address Click Send The guest will receive an email with a documentation link. The guest will receive an email with the link to access the shared file/folder: Guests who click this link will see an option to send an authentication code to their email.  They will need this code to access the folder/document.  This process may take 2-3 minutes. Troubleshooting and Support This section includes instructions for FreeWheel/Comcast to complete. If the FreeWheel/Comcast guest cannot complete the authentication process, please submit a support ticket.  The guest will be contacted with additional troubleshooting steps.  Please include  the email address for the guest account and screenshots of any error messages that are observed. Instructions for creating a support ticket are outlined on the  Client Support and Notifications Hub page .
