With Project Folders you can share folders with other user, granting read-only or read-write access to selected users.

 

Creating a Project Folder

To create a project folder, follow these steps:

  1. Click on the folder and select the Create a Project Folder icon from the menu.

  2. Select the user(s) you want to create a shared project with from the drop-down list, set the permission (Read by default) and tick the box to subscribe the user to upload notifications. 

    To stay aware of changes (upload/rename actions) in the Shared Projects, you can turn on Projects Shared With Me notifications once you are creating or editing a Project Folder. 

    Every time a file is uploaded, renamed or deleted, all Project Folder users will receive email notifications, except the person who owns the Project Folder.
