Nextcloud Pro Group Folder Management by the user manager

Procédure

Introduction

In this section, we will look at the management of group folders.

Group folders are folders that can be accessed by all users in a group, or even all users depending on the settings associated with the group. These folders make it easier to share files within Nextcloud.

Prerequisites

To follow this documentation, you need :

• A Nextcloud Pro storage package ordered from LWS and delivered to your customer account
• The manager role for the Nextcloud Pro package concerned

Access the group folder management menu

Step 1: Log in to the Nextcloud web application as the manager user and access the personalisation options:

Step 2: Look for the customisation options in the "Administration" section under "Group folders".

Step 3: You can now manage group folders. To create a group folder, enter a name in the box provided and click Create.

Step 4: Once a group folder has been created, such as the "Example " group folder, you can choose the actions that the different user groups can perform on the group folder, i.e. write to it, share it and delete it.

Conclusion

You can now create group folders and manage their permissions, particularly sharing by different groups. To manage sharing in more detail, consult the documentation on sharing.
