Set a library or folder’s audience
Illustrative controls
File, library or folder settings
Settings→ Distribution→ Share to
Use Distribution when it is available in that item’s Settings.
Collection settings
Settings→ Sharing→ Share to
Sharing is the collection’s tab. It is not a different name for the file’s Distribution tab.
- Open Manage → Content. From the library or folder’s action menu, choose Settings.
- If Distribution is available, open it. Under Share to, choose Specific users.
- In Select specific user groups, search for and select the group. Keep any other people or groups that should retain access.
- Click Save changes.
Use Sharing for a collection
Open the collection’s preview and choose Settings. If it has Sharing, open Sharing → Share to and choose Specific users. Use Search groups to select the group, then click Save changes.
If the library’s settings do not offer Distribution or a group picker, use the collection’s Sharing controls or the individual file’s access settings instead. In a Collections library that uses folders, open the folder’s Settings → Distribution.
What group access changes
Selecting a group as the content’s audience does not give its members an administrator role or contributor upload rights.
Account administrators retain access regardless of the selected group. A file’s own access and any applicable inheritance still determine whether other members can use that file.
