    • Directly with a Team Member

    • By Role

    • Organizationally

  3. All contents within your folder will now be shared appropriately, users will see this folder in the "Shared With Me" section within their Pipeline sidebar

Folder Permissions

By default, items within a folder inherit the folder's share settings. When you change the share settings of a folder, all of its contents will inherit that change as well.

However, if you were to change the share setting of a child item explicitly, then it would no longer inherit share settings and further changes to the parent folder would not propagate to that child view.

You can make the child item inherit the parent folder's share setting again by clicking "Share" and "Restore".
