    <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi &lt;a href="https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1573282"&gt;@MargoK&lt;/a&gt;, happy Monday! How are you today?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;When you say that this caused problems to the member's access, can you share some additional info on this? Can they see the folder, when visiting their &lt;A href="https://www.dropbox.com/share" target="_blank"&gt;sharing tab&lt;/A&gt;?&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;The first thing that also came to mind was indeed using &lt;A href="https://help.dropbox.com/teams-admins/team-member/groups" target="_blank"&gt;Groups&lt;/A&gt;. However there are two limitations you might want to keep in mind: one is that you wouldn't be able to add people outside of the Team to a group.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;And also, that you can give different permissions to people of the same group, however not individual ones.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;As for members, 3 is the minimum amount of licenses when owning a Business team. Of course, that depends on the Team's needs.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;If you have any other questions, let me know!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <title>Regulate access to folders</title>
      <link>https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Security-and-Permissions/Regulate-access-to-folders/m-p/621912#M4955</link>
      <description>&lt;P&gt;We are a small society with a board, secretariat and several committees . We have a business Dropbox account with 4 team members.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;What we need:&lt;BR /&gt;Multiple folders that are owned by Admin. Access to these folders upon invitation (but not through a link) by coworkers and people outside of de Dropbox Team. Some people should have edit rights, most should have viewing rights.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Current status: folders are owned by Admin. Admin made folders inside the Team Folder. Team members were denied access (because I do not want all of them to have access) and I invited a Team member and people outside Dropbox team, some with edit and some with viewing rights. That is how I want it, but making it so seems to have messed with 1 Team member’s access both to Team folder as with a folder it owns itself. Can this be caused by how I organized things or not?&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Dropbox chat suggests I use groups to grant access to folders. Is this necessary/better? I don’t think I can give some group members edit and others viewing rights?&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I am questioning how many team members I need. Maybe 1 is enough, or just a second as backup?&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Thank you for your reply. I fount out while writing this reply that they can now access all folders as intended - apparently it took someone's system somewhere some time to get this right.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;Groups are not the way to go then for me - thank you for clearing that up. Dropbox chat led me to believe inviting people from outside was possible.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;And I think I will limit our Team members to 3, we really don't need more than that.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;This has been extremely helpful, thanks again!&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi &lt;a href="https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1573282"&gt;@MargoK&lt;/a&gt;, you can always try &lt;A href="https://help.dropbox.com/share/share-with-others" target="_blank"&gt;sharing the folder directly&lt;/A&gt; with people outside of your Team, or even team members too.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I am glad everything has been resolved, and I'm always at your service to provide any help or answers! Enjoy your day!&lt;/P&gt;</description>
