This setting won’t apply to people who join this folder to collaborate

Hi all - I have a shared folder.

 

If I have it set so that "Only people invited can access", how would that change for a collaborator?

 

I see the note "This setting won’t apply to people who join this folder to collaborate" and just want to ensure that only people added can view/edit the folder and the link can't be shared with others.

    Hi there question12345 - welcome to our Community!

     

    I'm not sure I understand the query; could you elaborate a tad for me please?

     

    All the members of a shared folder will be able to share the folder via link or an invite as you, that's why I'm asking.

     

    Thanks!
