When shared files or folders are moved within or between shared drives, inherited access to content will be updated accordingly, and direct access will be preserved.įor example, imagine a document was originally in the Finance team shared drive. This shortcut will be accessible within Drive File Stream, where you can access the folder or sync the content. To make them appear, you need to create a shortcut to the shared folder in My Drive or the shared drive you have access to. Note, that shared folders do not automatically appear in Drive File Stream or a shared drive you have access to. Users can also organize shared folders using shortcuts. Recipients of shared folders get notifications, similar to how they will get an email if a Google Doc is shared with them. They do not appear in the shared drives hierarchy of the recipient, unless they are a member of the shared drive. Therefore, if permission on a file or folder is downgraded, the action will take place on one or more parent folders where the permission was inherited from.įolders shared from shared drives can be accessed in the Shared with me section in Drive. However, a Viewer on a shared drive can have their access expanded to Commenter or Contributor for specific files and subfolders within that shared drive. Folder permissions can only be expanded, not reduced or be more restrictive, within the shared drive.įor example, a Commenter on a shared drive cannot be just a Viewer of a folder within that shared drive. This helps with transparency, predictability, and scalability. How does the new sharing work?Īccess levels assigned to members of the shared drive represent the minimum level of permission to all files and folders within that shared drive. The new folder sharing permissions are available for Drive on the web, Drive File Stream and the latest mobile apps for Android and iOS. Note, only Managers can share drive folders because they control the drive’s members, settings, and overall user permissions. Now, you can share a specific folder with others outside of the team, or upgrade a team member’s access to provide additional permission on specific folders within the shared drive. Shared drives empower teams and departments to store, access, and collaborate on files. We are excited to announce new folder sharing permissions are now available in Google Drive shared drives!
