Group Folders App

A group folder is a folder that is created by Admin that is shared with everyone in a group.

Such “group folder” is created and configured in the “Group folders” Administration section under Settings menu of an Admin user.

After a folder is created, the Admin can give access to the folder to one or more groups, control their write/sharing permissions and assign a quota for the folder.

By default, Read access is given when a folder is shared to a group.  Permission can be set for Write, Share and Delete.

The shared folder will appear under each user’s Files App as a folder with the group icon as shown below.

There is an Advanced Permissions setting whereby it allows entitled users to configure permissions inside group folders on a per file and folder basis.  For more details on this, please refer to documentation at URL https://github.com/nextcloud/groupfolders.  Please read and take note that the permission rules and you may need to set it in a certain manner to achieve the desired effect.
