If they don’t have one, Dropbox guides them through signing up for at least a free plan. Note: Recipients must have a Dropbox account to access your shared file or folder. Your recipients will receive an email that contains a link clicking it grants them access to your file or folder, and they’ll be prompted to add your file or folder to their Dropbox. When you’re finished, click Share file or Share folder on the lower right of the share panel. Inside the box with the words “Add a note,” you can optionally type a message to your recipients. (Certain files, such as images and PDFs, can only be shared as “can view.”) If you click the downward-pointing arrow to the right of “can edit,” you can change the permissions to “can view.” This means that the people you’re sharing with can only view, download, or add comments to the shared file or any file in a shared folder they can’t edit or delete files, nor can they upload new files to the folder.
If you’re sharing a folder, the same permissions apply to all the files that are in the folder, and people you share the folder with can also upload files to it. (Click image to enlarge it.)Ībove your recipients is a drop-down menu that defaults to “can edit.” If you are sharing a file, “can edit” means that the people you are sharing the file with can edit, download, delete, or comment on the file, or add a copy of it to their own Dropbox account. When you share a file or folder, you grant invitees view or edit permissions. Inside the “Add an email or name” box, type in the email addresses or names of people in your Dropbox contacts who you want to share this file or folder with. The “Share this folder” or “Share this file” panel is opened. (If the details pane for this folder is open on the right side of the screen, the Share button appears at the top of the pane.)
