For mapping your Network drive with SharePoint Online you need to add SharePoint Online Site URL to the trusted site on the IE.

Open Internet Explorer :

  1. Internet Option
  2. In Security Tab select Trusted sites
  3. Sites

And make Sure WebClient windows service is running under Local Service account.

This is the WebDEV service running on the windows desktop making SharePoint online libraries available through windows explorer or any other windows client utilities. E.g. if you are planning to sync OneDrive for Business to your OneDrive client and sync doesn’t work, you may want to ensure this service has started.

  • i've been using local intranet zone and it works that way too. 'official document' is at support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/2507767/… They say add it to your trusted sites, then add it to your intranet. doesn't step 2 negate step one?
