Sharing a Briefcase Folder

By default, a briefcase folder is not shared. You (the Grantor) can share your folder with anyone (the Grantee).

Note: As an example, you might share a Briefcase so that your work group will be on the same page as to which verison of the uploaded files are the most current.

Follow these directions to share a briefcase folder:

  1. From the Briefcase tab, right-click the desired folder and select Share Folder from the menu.

  3. Type the Grantee's EagleMail address in the Email field.
  4. The Confirmation window is displayed. Click the Yes button.
  5. From the Role section, click the most appropriate access.

    Note: There are four levels of access 1) Viewer - they can only see it 2) Manager - they have full permissions, but cannot delete it 3) Admin - they have the same permissions as a Manager plus they can share your briefcase and 4) None - their access to it is temporarily disabled.
  6. Click the OK button.
    Note: The Grantee will be sent a share request email message.
