WorkSpace - Sharing

In Workspaces - Can you share a folder with specific people that are not included in an overall workspace?  (For Example - we have a workspace that is shared internally with client folders, but would like to share a specific folder inside those folders with clients.  But not allow them to see the whole workspace.) Currently I understand that you can share the specific sheets with people outside of the workspace.

    Amy,

    Although you cannot share a folder, you can share individual sheets within (not only outside of) a workspace with other collaborators. You can select when sharing a sheet in a workspace how you want to invite people: 

     

     

    I know, it might be time-consuming if you have too many sheets in the specific folder...

    You can also give certain people 'higher' privileges for individual sheets than they have for the whole workspace.

    For example, Andy has "Viewer" privileges to the workspace but is given "Admin" privileges to the "Things_Andy_Says" sheet.

     

    Sharing of sheets is relatively new and there are certainly needed improvements (like an overview of the sheet level exceptions)

    Right that is what I thought.  Thank you for your feedback.
