Sharing Folders

Crossref members who are administrators will have the ability to share folders with single or multiple users within their account.

  1. Launch Crossref and select My Files from the sidebar.
  2. Select the check-box of the folder. The Share option in the top menu is no longer grayed out and can be selected.

  3. Enter the name or email address of the users that you would like to allow access to the chosen folder and select Invite. Users will be automatically notified by email once you invite them to the folder. Everyone with access to the folder will be listed under the heading Users with access.
  4. Users will be able to interact with all of the folder's content, and the content of all sub folders, for as long as they have access. This includes other user submissions along with any annotations attached to them.

    Only top level folders can be shared with other users. It is not possible to share a sub folder that sits within another folder.

  5. To remove a users access to a shared folder, select the X beside their details within the Users with access list.
  6. To interact with folders that you have been invited to, select Shared with me from the sidebar.
