You turn your private folder into a shared workspace by inviting another user as the second "member" -- you are the first member and owner of the workspace.

• Select  File    Share    Add Member   in the top menu bar

to trigger this action.

By inviting additional members to a shared workspace you enlarge the group of people who may access the workspace and the objects it contains.

Before you turn a private folder into a shared workspace, please read chapter 4, in particular sections 4.4 to 4.7.

A private folder, a shared workspace or a folder or discussion within a workspace may be made a public workspace by inviting the user anonymous. The  File    Share    Add Member   action lets you do this. There is, however, a more convenient way, which also gives you extended control over what anonymous may do in the workspace:

• Select the  Public Access   entry of the object that you plan to make publicly accessible (see section3.6)

in order to specify the actions that anonymous is allowed to fulfill in the folder.

As a default, this will grant him only the right to read everything the folder contains.

Section 4.7 explains how to modify the access rights of anonymous and of other members of your workspace.
