Hi there Charles2026​ , and welcome to the Dropbox Community! 😊

I am glad to see your issue is resolved - managing access to the same folder in different ways for multiple groups can definitely get tricky, so it’s great to hear you were able to get everything set up the way you needed. Thanks so much for coming back to update the thread as well... it really helps others who might be navigating similar sharing scenarios!

By the way, I’m Theresa 👩‍💻, one of the community managers here at Dropbox HQ. Since you’ve been working with team and group access, I’d love to know… what’s your favourite Dropbox feature? I always enjoy hearing what people find most useful.

Looking forward to hearing more,

T 😺 (Dropbox Community Manager)
