Creating new folder in a shared folder

If I create a public shared folder and have given the share link to a 3rd party, then if some months later I create a new folder inside the existing shared folder, then will the 3rd party that already has the original share link be able to see my new shared folder create within?

I want this to happen, so I can create a share folder once at the top level, and then have my 3rd party see all content within going forward, including any new folders I create within.

    Hi there rosstre, thanks for using Dropbox and welcome to the Community.

     

    This should work as long as you make sure that you're creating the folders inside the folder you shared a link with others to access.

     

    Let us know if you have any other questions.
