In Zoho Docs, folder sharing use case can be achieved through Workspace. you can create Workspace and invite your group members, where user can create folder (workspace) and invite others to view, edit the files based on the permission set by the workspace owner.
Benefits: Whenever you add new files to a workspace, they get shared to all the workspace members automatically. No need for you to share each file again to a set of email addresses.
Consider a situation where a new member joins your work team. Whenever you add him/her to your workspace, he/she can see all the files that are there. The workspace acts as a repository.
You can set different permissions (Viewer or Collaborator) for each of the members in your workspace
You can better organize your files within a workspace by creating folders
You can configure whether notification emails (sent each time a files shared) need to be sent to workspace members or not
You can unsubscribe from a shared workspace, if you do not want to continue being a member of the workspace. Once you unsubscribe from a shared workspace you will not have access to any of the documents uploaded in that workspace. In addition, owner of the workspace will also be notified when you 'Unsubscribe' from the shared workspace through email.
To unsubscribe from a workspace:
- Select the shared workspace
- Click on 'Unsubscribe' option from the toolbar on top (OR) Right click on the shared workspace and select 'Unsubscribe' option from the shared menu
- A pop-up confirmation message appears. Click on "Ok" to unsubscribe from shared workspace.
