Create a distribution group

The following provides the steps necessary to create a distribution group in ShareFile.

Notes:

  • Members added to the Distribution Group will inherit the folder access permissions of the group.

  • Members removed from the Distribution Group will lose the folder access permissions given to that group.

  • Permissions given on a folder to a distribution group will apply to every member. This includes notifications about downloads and uploads.

  1. Once you are signed into your ShareFile account, navigate to People > Distribution Groups.
