How can I see all recipients from the file activity list?

This might have been covered previously but I can't find it.  Is there a way to see all the recipients in the file activiy list, not just one name plus some number?

    Thanks for posting on our forum, Carusos Rubble

    If you're trying to see all the members of a shared folder, what you can do is follow these steps instead. 

    If that's not what you wish to do though, I'd like more details on your request, so that I can further help (you can also send over a screenshot of where you're looking at at the moment and clarify what you'd like to achieve).

    Keep me updated.

    Nancy,

    Thank you, but that doesn't really address what I was inquiring about.  When  I click on a file and then maneuver to "File Activity" it only shows me one name, even if I've shared that file with five people, for instance:


    What I would like to see is all five people's name.

    Hey Carusos Rubble, thanks for the clarification.

    Unless the events page helps you, there's no way to see all the names in the file activity, but you should be able to see all members of a file from your "all files" page.

    You'll need to hover over the number of members in the "Who can access" column next to the file name and all the names and last names of the members should appear.

    Other than that, I'll pass your feedback along to our team about this.

    I hope this helps!
