How can I restrict access using groups for a new member on a Business plan?
With the Business Plan, I have two groups. Group 1 is for everyone that is a member. Group 2 is limited. How do I set up access to add a new member so that they are not automatically added as Group 1. How can I add someone so that they can see group 2. Alternatively, how can i give access to someone so that they can only access a certain folder rather than adding them as a member. The setting at the moment mean i cannot share the link. The link is not avaible for some reason

Hi sammybloomberg, thanks for messaging the Community!
By default, when a new user is added to the 'Everyone at' group, however, you can remove that group from the user and choose Group 2 instead.
Depending on your sharing permissions, you might be able to share a link to the folder in question, which won't require that person to be a member of your team.
If you need any further assistance, please let me know!

Thank you Jay. I cannot remove the person from Group 1 as for some reason, I am not a adminstrator. Please advise.
