    Hi Nancy,

     

    Thanks for the follow up, but it looks like the issue fixed itself. The team member was able to share the folder with me yesterday. I'm not sure why, but everything seems to be back to normal. I'll reach out if it happens again. Thank you!

I am not able to see the folder on the website, desktop, or mobile. And the system never notified me that the folder was shared with me. Only the team member that created the folder is able to see it. So far it's just this folder and this team member.

Thanks for clarifying, AIngram!

 

The team member that you mention, are they able to see the folder both on the website and the desktop app? 

 

Also, has this folder been shared with other team members? I’d like to check if this is affecting other users as well, so that we can isolate this further.
