Requests for team folders must come from departmental IT or a departmental lead responsible for managing access to departmental files. The requester must accept responsibility of managing access to the team folder and understand that they will have full access to all files within the team folder.<\/p>\n
Upon creation of the team folder, team folder managers will be assigned into a group following the naming convention [Campus Abbreviation]-[Department]-GROUP (i.e. SYS-ITS-GROUP). Members of this group have full access to the team folder. Please note that only the Â鶹´«Ã½Dropbox Administrator may add users with full access to manage the team folder. Additional groups may be requested to be created by the Â鶹´«Ã½Dropbox Administrator using the naming convention [Campus Abbreviation]-[Department]-GROUP-[Group Name].<\/p>\n
Navigating Team Folders<\/h2>\n
Team folders will appear under your user content along with other owned and shared folders. Team folders are designated with a building icon. Subfolders within team folders will also have the same icon.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\nTeam folders also display the number of Â鶹´«Ã½Enterprise team members that have access to the folder. A list of members may be viewed by clicking the \u201c\u2026\u201d icon, then \u201cManage permissions\u201d.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\nCreating and Managing Subfolders in a Team Folder<\/h2>\n
Users with edit access to a team folder have permission to create subfolders within a team folder. To create a subfolder, click on \u201cCreate\u201d at the top of the Dropbox web interface. In the create folder popup window, there will be the option to grant access to everyone who has access to the parent folder or restrict permission to specific user groups.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\nAfter creating the subfolder, additional users may be granted access by clicking the \u201c\u2026\u201d icon, then clicking \u201cShare\u201d. Enter the team members or groups to assign access to the team folder and select whether shared members have edit or view-only access. Then, click \u201cShare folder\u201d.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\nManaging Groups for Shared Access<\/h2>\n
For departments with many members, groups are recommended to grant access to files within a team folder. Groups may be assigned a view-only or an editor role.<\/p>\n
Dropbox provides the option to create your own user-managed groups that can be assigned to team folders by team folder managers. To create a new group using the Dropbox web interface, click on your profile icon in the top-right of the window, then click \u201cView team and groups\u201d.<\/p>\n
