Who can see who has access to view folder?
If I give access to users outside the team to view a folder, can they see all the other users that can view the folder?
For example, if user A, B and C (all outside the team) have access to view a folder - can B see that A and C also have access?
Hi,
The short answer is that members of shared folders can see all other members, regardless of whether they are team members or not. Shared folders are intended for collaboration, and so the ability to hide membership doesn't make much sense. In the event that you would like to share files with people without them being able to see who else the files are shared with or who are members, you may use a shared link.

- Well I am looking at a Dropbox folder which has been shared with me. I can't see who it has been shared with, only that there are 12 people. This is annoying because I have been tasked with sharing it with others, but I don't know who can and can't see it at present. So someone somewhere has a solution to hiding the member details!
