By default, existing and newly provisioned user accounts use the ShareFile-managed cloud storage as the default zone.

To specify the default zone for user accounts provisioned from AD, during user provisioning, select the storage location. For more information, see Edit User Rule Options in the ShareFile Policy Based Administration article.

To change the default zone for an individual user:

From the left pane, click People. This People menu is expanded.
Click Browse Employees.
Browse or search for your user.
Click the user or the Manage (gear) icon on the right, to open the user profile.
Under Employee User Settings, expand the Storage Location option to designate the default StorageZone.
Click Save Changes.
