    Hi, Thank you for the good content. I'm just setting a Google shared drive and I could not understand why we don't create 1 main folder(main shared drive) for the company name and subfolders for the teams and share subfolders with the team. But we create multiple Google shared drives for the teams.

    If I set up shared drives on my info email, then the HR email for example, can't use the "insert files using drive" icon when composing a message. The user has to download the file from the shared drive and then upload it to the email which extends the process. Is there a way around this with shared drives? Why not use the HR email as the HR drive?

    Have you had the problem of having to manage permissions at the file/folder level? As I understand if you’re part of a shared drive you cannot be prevented from opening a single file or folder in that shared drive. What if you don’t want someone seeing one particular folder in a shared drive but everything else is kosher?
    What if someone only needs access to a couple files in one shared drive, and a folder from another, but not all files and folders in those drives?

    • @kirsch-agency
      @kirsch-agency 8 месяцев назад +2

      RIGHT! File sharing of a file/folder subordinate to the "shared drive" requires the parent to share the same permission. In "My Drive" you can maintain various levels of permissions both up and down the file/folder chain. This is frustrating - But: I love your grouping concept and appreciate you doing this video.

    Thank you for this... but is there a way to have a document in the shared drive that is Force Copy upon opening? I understand can change the end of a link to 'copy' and then send that link, but causes me to continuously share it manually. I want the document that is stored in the shared drive to force copy upon opening. Please help! All of the tutorials are about the magic of replacing 'edit' with 'copy' - but I understand that part... I want the master document to be force copy. Thank you!

    Hi, great tutorial, my friend shares a folder with me in shared with me, I send him photos and videos on his drive but through the folder shared by him (google drive/ shared with me), whenever I send/move files to his folder which he shares it with me, my space on my google drive is decreasing. That is, I take a photo or video with my phone, go to my Google Drive, to the shared with me tab, inside there is a folder that is his and he shared with me, I upload the files here, and my space on Google Drive decreases. Is there any other way for me to send photos to him on his Google Drive but without reducing my space in my Google Drive? Thanks.
    Kind Regards Adam.

    Hi, I tried to find the Shared Drives in my Google Drive , unfortunately I don't have it there. It is my personal google account. Do I have to upgrade to some business google account to get access to Shared Drives? Thanks for advice

    • @chezlineriley6913

      Hi, that's correct. You will need either a business or education account to use shared drives. This is not available for personal accounts.

    hello mate, nice video. I am in a weird situation, I migrated 18 users to google from microsoft but 10 of those users are just "emails", not real persons. And I am shocked to see that I can't upgrade just the real 8 users to the business plan from the starter in order to have access to the share drive function. How would you handle it? Shall I use my personal drive and share it with the 7 other people? Or shall I have a user outside my organisation who is upgrade on the business standard and this outside user shares with the 8 users? I have sensitive files that should be seen only by 2 or 3 users...
    thanks !

    A colleague has shared a folder with me, full of Photoshop files I need to work on. How do I make this available to me offline, sync it to a folder on my hard drive? I looked for create Shared Drives, but I don't see that as an option. Does he have to create the shared drive? I am used to working in Dropbox where all of this is simple and easy to understand. Thanks!

    Hello
    I really liked your video. I have one question for you. I use Trello for my small business. To send SMS notifications to clients, I use Google messages, which is connected to an Android mobile phone. Is it possible to connect Trello with Google messages? Maybe with the help of Zapier or some other app.
    My goal is that when the card in trello is marked as completed, the client will receive an SMS message on his android or apple phone
