We recommend annual review of the people included in your sharing permissions, to make sure you're not oversharing sensitive data with people who are no longer contributing to your team. If you include any students in your sharing permissions, take note that when they graduate, their access will continue under their alumni account.For example, use something specific like "Psychoceramics Faculty Meetings" or "NanoLab Machine Learning Project", not anything too general like “Meeting Minutes” or “Shared Files”. Give folders a unique name including your department name.To avoid duplication, coordinate with others in your department, especially IT staff, before creating a department-wide Shared Drive.If you prefer not to use Shared Drive, you can still share to a Google Group in Google Drive. When people join or leave the group, access to your Shared Drive will automatically change. If you’re sharing with a large list of people such as your department, share your Shared Drive with a Google Group instead of individually adding each member ( here’s how to request a Google Group).You can only move content you own to a Shared Drive (may be an issue if you are organizing files on behalf of another person).Unlike regular folders in Google Drive, you can’t add or remove people from subfolders of a Shared Drive, though you can share individual pieces of content (not folders) with additional people.
In other words, if you make someone an editor of the Shared Drive, they can edit every folder and file in the drive. When you create and share a Shared Drive, everything in the Shared Drive, including any subfolders, are accessible to anyone with access to the Shared Drive.Content in a Shared Drive is not owned by an individual, it is owned by the team.
We recommend reading this article to understand if it meets your needs. Though Shared Drive has advantages, it may or may not be a good fit for your use case. All content of a Shared Drive folder is owned by the team instead of an individual, and the same people have consistent permissions to all content in the folder. Shared Drive is designed to help groups collaborate. Until now, everything that you’ve created in Google Drive has lived in a place called “My Drive.” Starting on August 14th, 2018 you’ll see a second place to create content: Shared Drive.
