This is beacuse you loacal account would not work with Work domain.
Solution 1 - I would suggest to put your files to One Drive or SharePoint Folder and use it from there
Solution 2- you can put it inside organozation system and use organizaion windows account

Hi marc_agi
Another alternative is to make sure that the domain account has access to the files you want to read from.
You can also do this by creating a share where the folders/files are stored and then grant the same domain account access to that share to read the files?
Thnx for ur reply.
with domain account you mean my personal account for my machine or my work account which I used to set up the gateway?
just to elaborate a bit more on the situation.
I'm trying to connect to files/folders from Onedrive for Business (work account) via my local machine using the file/folder paths.
my personal account is already granted access to this Ondedrive (Acces granted 'Owner').
