Overview
Share a Folder or Project with users and groups to give them access to that Folder or Project. Once a Folder or Project is shared with a user, they will also have access to all of its Subfolders, Subprojects, tasks, and subtasks. As you add tasks, Subfolders, and Subprojects to a parent Folder/Project, those items are automatically shared with the users and groups who have access to the parent Folder/Project.
✋Note! If you’re on a Free or Professional account, please use this page for sharing Tasks, Folders, and Projects.
Important Information
- When you unshare a Folder or Project with a user or group, all of its Subfolders, Subprojects, tasks, and subtasks are automatically unshared from that user or group as well. However, if a Subfolder, Subproject, task, or subtask is included in another Folder or Project, which the user is still shared on, then they will still be able to access it.
- You are not able to unshare a Subfolder or Subproject from a user or group if that user or group has access to a parent Folder or Project.
- Share a Folder or Project with the My Team group to share it with all Regular Users who are part of the subscription.
