Sharing the Drive: Fun and Easy!
Google Drive is a great way to share information and collaborate with your colleagues. To give access to Google Drive, you’ll first need to create a shared folder or document with the users you’d like to share. To create a shared folder or document, simply click on the ‘New’ button in Google Drive and select the type of file you want to share.
Once you’ve created the file or folder, you can add collaborators by entering their email addresses in the ‘Share’ box. Then, all you have to do is click ‘Send’ and wait for them to be added. That’s it! Your colleagues will now be able to access and edit the documents you shared with them.
Unlocking Google’s Cloud: Faster Than You Can Say “Drive”!
If you want to give access to Google Drive for people outside of your organisation, you’ll need to set up Google Groups. Google Groups allow you to create a group of people and quickly send them emails, access documents, and share files. To create a group, simply go to your Google Drive account, click on ‘New’ and select ‘Group’.
Once you’ve created the group, you can add members to it by entering their email addresses. You can also select the type of access you want to give each group member: can they only view the documents, or can they also edit and comment? Once you’ve finished setting up the group, click ‘Create’ and your Google Drive documents will be shared with the group members.
Sharing information through Google Drive is incredibly easy, making it a great way to collaborate with your colleagues. Whether you need to give access to an internal or external group, you can quickly set up a shared folder or document with just a few clicks. What are you waiting for?
