  • Enter the email addresses of the people you want to share the folder with.
  • Choose the permission level you want to give them:
    • Can edit: Allows people to edit files in the folder.
    • Can view: Allows people to view files in the folder, but not edit them.
  • Click Share.

3. Collaborate on Files
