I'm trying to have all of the files in one spot and was having trouble with the shared files being able to get edited without being in a folder. Is there a way to put a view-only file in a shared folder or is everything in there able to get edited?
Hi @Jalby! Thanks for your post.
I’m afraid what you’re asking isn’t possible. At the moment, it’s only possible to change the sharing permissions of a specific member to the whole folder.
In this case, this file will need to be placed outside of this folder and shared separately with view-only permissions instead.
Hope this helps.
Thank you! Do you know if it will ever be possible in the future? It would be incredibly helpful for us. Is there a way to save a document to the dropbox app so you can see real time changes to a view-only file?
Hi!
I haven't. Is it a better system for sharing files?
Hey again, @Jalby! I can’t tell for sure if what you asked above will be possible, but I’ve passed your feedback to our team.
Also, about your question here “Is there a way to save a document to the dropbox app so you can see real time changes to a view-only file?”, can you clarify what you mean exactly?
