Sharing multiple folders in one go. Possible?

I need to share 700 folders with a new team member.

For a moment this morning, I could select all folders and there was an option to share. Now, when I click the same button, there is only option to send a copy.

I can I share all these folders in one go?

    Hey Patricia24, thanks for posting here! 

     

    At the moment, it's not possible to share everything in your account at once.

     

    The best solution is to move your files into a common folder, then share that folder, either as a shared folder or with a shared link.

     

    I hope this clarifies!

    Thank you. I was hoping for a different answer. We are sharing hundreds of folders with different team members. They don't require access to the came folders, e.g 500 could be shared with person A, 450 with person B... I don't want to share all folders with all team members.

    Hey Patricia24 - sorry to jump in here, but maybe in this case, you'd like to restrict some folders inside a team folder as outlined here?

     

    That would probably be the next best thing.
