Hi Bhavesh, Thank you very much for the steps. Though I know the first task, I have never tried the second task. Now it's clear. But my doubt is after the folder is shared, can both the parties share information, or the person who has created the folder can only share the information and the person with whom the folder has been shared can only be a mere user of the information?
