Share Authenticator folders and shared drives with an employee

Admins can give an employee an Authenticator folder or a shared drive, as a Viewer who can only look or an Editor who can make changes.

  1. Click Users in the sidebar.
  2. Click the person's name.
  3. On the Access tab, click Share folder for an Authenticator folder, or Share drive for a shared drive.
  4. Choose the folder or drive. The list leaves out anything they already have. Only folders you created appear.
  5. Under Access, choose Viewer or Editor.
  6. Click Share.

It appears in their workspace straight away.

Change or remove it

On the same Access tab, change the list on that row to switch between Viewer and Editor. Click the cross at the end of the row, then Remove access, to take it away.

If someone has a folder inside a shared drive rather than the whole drive, it shows under Shared cloud folders, where you can remove it.
