Existing media,
prior to adding the OneDrive subscription, will not copy to Echo360.  The sync only applies to new media recordings after you've added the OneDrive subscription. 
Subscribing to a OneDrive folder only audio/video media will copy to Echo360, see supported file formats.
PowerPoint media  will not copy to Echo360 at this time. You can manually upload presentations via the Create button > Upload.
