How to share subfolder of shared folder with new people?

Hi guys,


how I have shared folder 1 (shared with people A,B), and I have subfolder 2 which I would like to share with people C, D. How can I do that? On google drive it does work normally.


But in the icloud folder I got the error message - "This is a subfolder of a shared folder. Go to the folder's share options to add people or change editing permissions." When I tried I could only add people C,D to the main folder and share everything - but I only want to share subfolder 2 with them.


How can I do it?


Thanks,

Zdenka

Hello ZdenkaSD,


We'd like to share a user guide that can be helpful in managing your iCloud File Sharing. We recommend reviewing the guidance in its entirety as it may help explain the steps you need to take, and find what features are and are not available. If you find that you're unable to share individual sub-files or folders as you'd like we do recommend sharing feedback. That link will also be below:
