Is it possible to share a folder in a parent folder without them having access to everything?

I have a parent folder and would like to share sub folders with my clients but only want them to see their folder not all the folders in the parent folder. I have the basic plan. Is it possible to share a folder in a parent folder with someone without them having access to all the folders in the parent folder?

    Yes it is 🙂

     

    Just share the subfolder - the only thing to watch is if the parent is also shared it may not work - this is plan dependent, but, you are told this when you go to share.
