sharing files and folders with non team members
Greetings to all, Using a business standard account, I would like to create different spaces to share files and folders with specific team members as well as non-members. Typically: Top-level ----> sharedspace1 (john, peter, mary, teammember1) ----> sharedspace2 (jane, peter, teammember1, teammember2) ----> sharedspace3 (peter, chris) When sharing a file (within a shared folder) with non-team members, each non-team member receives an (email) invitation and link to access said file Before the non-member can access the file, he is asked to merge it with his personal dropbox account 1/ Is there a way for non-team members to access shared files / folders without having to merge with their personal Dropbox? 2/ If they do merge with the personal Dropbox: a/ Are any subsequent edits to yhe file from others automatically synced? b/ How can we be sure that third parties do not have access to other files / folders of the personal Dropbox? When a non-team member creates and shares a file / folder (within the shared space), an email can be sent for accessing the file/folder but the file/folder is not created in a shared space; rather, it is created under the private space (purple) of the Team. It can not be seen by non-administrator in the hierarchy. Since a non-member is the owner of the file/folder, it cant be moved into a shared space - not even by the administrator. The error is 'The owner of this shared folder isn't a member of the Team.' 1/ Is there a way to force files / folders created by non-members to live in a specific directory (in a shared space)? Thanks!Solved7.9KViews1like6Comments
