About Folder Sharing Capabilities

You are the owner of folders you create. You can share the folder with users, groups, or resource teams and you can designate other users as co-owners, collaborators, contributors, or viewers. You cannot change the primary owner of a folder, however.

The following table lists the shared capabilities for each role.

Role	Capabilities
Owner	All capabilities.
Co-owner	Modify folder properties Modify sharing Delete folder Add links to folder Remove links from folder
Collaborator	Add links to folder Remove links from folder
Contributor	Add links to folder
Viewer	View shared folders
Ignore	No capabilities. Note: This role is available only for subfolders. Use this role when you want to remove all capabilities from a user, group, or team that has inherited a role from the parent folder.

Sharing a Folder with Other Users

On the Sharing tab, select or search for the users, groups, or teams to share the folder with, then click the plus sign to add them to the share list.

In User Workspace, users can find shared folders under Public Folders. Folders that you share will appear in under your Favorites.

Overriding Inherited Sharing Assignments
