Add a Group to a Folder

You add a space group to a document folder, and assign access rights to the group, to grant members access to the documents within the parent folder.

You must be an owner of a space, or the owner of a folder, to manage folder access.

To add a group to a document folder:

  1. In the Navigation pane, click Spaces.
  2. Click the space to navigate to it. To search for a space, enter the name in the Search Spaces field.
  3. Click the Documents tab to select it.
  4. In the Folders tree, click > View Properties for the folder you want to modify. If the Folders tree is not displayed, click to display it.
  5. In the Folder dialog box, click on the Groups section header.
  6. At the bottom of the list of groups, click Add Group.
  7. Click in the Select an item field, and select the group you want to add. By default, the group will be assigned the Reviewer role. You can select a different role for the group from the drop-down list in the Access column. See Folder Access Rights for more information.
  8. Click Save. The selected groups can now access the documents within the folder.
    Important: When you add a group to a folder, and assign access rights, the same access rights apply to any subfolders on the parent folder. If required, you can edit individual subfolders to modify a group's access rights.
