Permission you need

View files and folders

Set by your workspace admin. If you cannot do this, ask them for access.

When you share an item, the other person finds it in their own Shared tab. They cannot see anything else of yours.

The person opens Drive and taps the Shared tab. The item you shared is listed there.
The Shared tab for the recipient
On this screen
- Shared is underlined in the tab row.
- The shared folder – Project Documents appears as a normal folder card.
- Extra tab – this person is a Super Admin, so they also see a Storage tab. A member does not.
- Footer – Showing 1 of 1 items.
They open the folder. What they can do depends on the access level you gave.
Inside a shared folder with Edit access
On this screen
- Path bar – My Files › Project Documents shows where they are.
- With Edit access they can upload: the + New button and the Upload files button are available.
- With View access they can open and read, but not add or change anything.
- This folder is empty – the message they see until someone adds files.

Good to know

You can withdraw access at any time; the item then disappears from their Shared tab.
Files uploaded into a shared folder use the workspace's shared storage, not the uploader's personal quota.
A person can remove an item from their own Shared list without affecting you or anyone else.
