Sub-folders can now be closed off from the folder above them. Until now, whoever could see a folder could also see all its sub-folders. Set a sub-folder to Only people added here, and only the people and teams you add to it, plus its manager, can see it.

That is useful for confidential content inside a shared folder, for example HR conversations in a department folder. The rest of the structure stays shared as before.

Edit folder panel for the Q2 sub-folder with the open Who can see this folder selector and the answers Same as folder Weekly Meetings and Only people added here
(1) Same as folder “Weekly Meetings”, (2) Only people added here

What's new?​

  • New selector: Who can see this folder? sits to the right of Share with when you create or edit a sub-folder
  • Two answers: Same as folder “…” stays the default. Only people added here limits the folder to the people and teams you add directly, and the manager
  • Clear overview: under Inherited access (from parent folders), shares that no longer apply are struck through and marked Cannot see it
  • Easy to spot: a label with a lock next to the folder title shows that a sub-folder is set to Only people added here
  • Only the manager decides: for everyone else, the selector is locked
  • Nothing gets lost: existing shares stay. Switch back to Same as folder “…” and they apply again

Also new: sub-folders in the sidebar​

When you open a folder, its sub-folders are now listed on the left in the Subfolders sidebar, and the recordings start right next to it.
