access, and then specify the level of access by selecting the
full access or the read-only access icon.

the family’s photos or Mom’s videos (so he can’t change,
delete, or add to them), but full access to Projects, so he can
add, edit, or delete project files.

Assign a name to the share that clearly indicates the type of
files it will contain.
Share Description
Enter a brief description of the content in the share. Note that
share descriptions must begin with an alphanumeric value
