He did this in order to create a single place to organize his company's documents, he created a folder and shared it with the entire domain (16 accounts), granting permissions to folders by areas or topics.

Some people have reached their maximum storage capacity (30 GB), however the documents should mostly be in the shared folder (administrator property) and not in their Drives of each user, in such a way that it does not take up space in your accounts.

It is clear that, when a user uploads a document to MY DRIVE the property belongs to him.

When a user uploads a document to a shared folder, to whom does this storage count, to him or to the owner of the folder?

I made a test and despite the fact that the user placed documents in the shared folder, they continued to count space for him. It stopped accounting for storage until the user changed the ownership of the document to the administrator and owner of the folder.

@ggarcia4 I don't think Demir's Beta Link will help because you aren't using a Shared Drive. You are using a folder you have shared from My Drive. Doing that does not change ownership, I believe only the Shared Drive feature will do that where it changes the ownership to the organization.

What do you think of creating two domains (or a mix of accounts) for the company where one uses Business Standard and the other Starter, and granting permissions to the Starter accounts to a folder in the Team drive of the Business Standard account, might it work?

Or if a user places documents in a foreign folder, they will continue to be their property and count their storage.

Setting up a second workspace instance with a second domain on a sku with shared drives and adding people from another workspace instance to it should work. I know we use @gmail users and people with all different skus on projects with Shared Drives. In the old days, you didn't get the pooled or unlimited storage benefits until at least 5 users. No idea what you'll get storage-wise this way so the costs might not outweigh the extra domain, extra account, and labor to setup/maintain.

@GerhardZelenka& @chloewong, Google focuses on an additive permission model so it's best to use multiple shared drives. And if you are on Enterprise or considering it, you might find that dynamic groups helps a ton! _name=UnuFlow&hl=en

I am not sure if it is helpful or not, but I was able to control access to folders using shortcuts. I created a new drive with the setting "Allow people who aren't shared drive members to access files" checked. Then created a folder that I wanted to share, made it "Restricted" and only added the users that I wanted to grant access to. I then created another drive, this was just to make mapping easier, where I added Shortcuts to the shared folders.

Looking for a solution too. It is a pitty that your user (on an organizational level) receives acces to an uploaded file of a folder whose settings are set to restricted. The files uploaded to the restricted folder should inherit the folders permissions and the ones of the entire drive. I dont see the point in this!

Enter "Shared Drives" for the safety and longevity and continuity of folders and files being there even when the account (individual or generic) is deleted. Superb way to protect files and folders..... HOWEVER, using a "Shared Drive" I create a Shared Drive called "School Server" then add respective folders beneath that for the Schools, Finance, Board etc. Then at the highest level ("School Server") I add all_staff@school.com (which is a product of multiple groups) then I want to go and restrict access to the folders beneath that (within the "School Server" drive) and I cannot. Everyone who allowed "View access" to the "School Server" drive can click through each and every folder and open every file in the Shared Drive. ie. a top down permission levels setting within a Shared Drive does not work, but within "My Drive" it does.... Very frustrating.... Is my logic/thinking missing something. The very permissions structure that makes sense to me is possible within "My Drive" but not within "Shared Drives"

So then within "Shared Drives" and the "School Server" drive I did tried the opposite.... I gave no one permission to the Shared Drive called "School Server" but did give them permission to the folders within. This works HOWEVER, next problem, is that because they are not on the Shared drive, then cannot visibly see the "School Server". Now the shared folder (lets say "Secondary Schoo") needs to searched for (it doesn't even show under "Shared with me").... then, once found, needs be added as a shortcut to their My Drive....

I did think that maybe I ought to see the "Shared Drive" (highest level) as the "School Server" Shared drive, but only those who are Sec teachers see that their is a Secondary Folder etc. I really, really want everyone in the school to see all of the folder structure (in the "Shared Drives") but only have access to the ones relevant to them.....

All correct so far, and it works well with non-organizational users (e.g. group members), but be careful: When you or someone else adds new files to secondary school folder, everyone in your organization will be able to see/ search these files. So in my opinion you could directly create two separate shared drives and set up two organizational units.

As articulated by @Epotronic the flaw in your design is making the "School Server" drive; don't make that as a Shared Drive, but make Shared Drives for the folders you would put in there, e.g. make a Shared Drives for "Secondary School" and "Elementary School" (or maybe even folders within them

The user signed in also can access "Clients - Steegle.One" which is just a folder on a Shared Drive shared with the user, the user does not have access to the Shared Drive, so it appears in Shared with me when accessing.

You can share files and folders in iCloud Drive so other people can view and edit them. You can also allow participants to add people to a file or folder. To learn more about the roles of owner and participant, see What can you do in a shared file or folder on iCloud.com?

When you share a folder, only the participants can view the files in the shared folder. To invite more people to access the files, you must change the settings of the shared folder. You cannot select an individual file or folder within the shared folder and add participants to it.

If you need to repeatedly access a shared folder or network drive, you can map to it. Mapping creates a persistent link to the share, allowing you to double-click its icon in MyComputer whenever you want access.

The files on your OneDrive are private until you share them. Keep in mind that when you share folders with Edit permissions, people you share with can add the shared folders to their own OneDrive. This lets them keep the folder alongside their own folders and items, easily move items between folders, and more easily work on it offline. Any updates they make sync with the shared folder, so everyone with access to the folder is up to date.

Choose this option to share items with lots of people you might not even know personally. For example, you can use these links to post to Facebook, Twitter, or LinkedIn, or share in an email or message. Anyone who gets the link can view or edit the item, depending on the permission you set. Users with the link cannot upload new items. If the sharing link points to a folder, you may be required to sign in with a Microsoft account. Don't have one?

If the selected file or folder is shared with someone already, there is a Shared with list at the bottom. Each image is either the profile photo of an individual or the initials of a group that the file has been shared with. If you want to edit the access level for an individual or group, select a photo or group initials to open Manage Access.

Allow editing lets people who are signed in with a Microsoft Account edit the files or folders they have access to. If you're sharing a folder, people with Edit permissions can copy, move, edit, rename, share, and delete anything in the folder they have access to. Unchecking this box means that people can view, copy, or download your items without signing in. They can also forward the link to other people. However, they cannot make changes to the version on your OneDrive.

Set password letsyou set a password to access the file. When a user clicks the link, they will be prompted to enter a password before they can access the file. You'll need to provide this password separately to anyone you want to share the file with. 17dc91bb1f
