How can I share folders with people outside my team?

[FStobacco]

My work has a Dropbpx business account, and I am admin. I want to create a shared folder within our DB-account to share with external collaborators. And I want to give some of them the persmission to add further (external) people. Somehow I can´t seem to make this happen. Any pointers?

Hi @FStobacco, thanks for bringing this to our attention.

Could you let me know in more detail what you're experiencing?

Have you enabled this setting to share folders outside of your team?

This will help me to assist further!

Thank for yout reply Jay.

My workplace has business account with 5 licenses. I am one of them, and I have admin rights. Now I am trying to establish a shared folder with freelancers outside our organisation (and not part of the 5 people with a DB-license). So far so good. The problem starts when I want to enable one of the freelancers to also add external people to this shjared folder. In my admin conconsole I have the following settings:

Share links outside your team - ON

Default acsess for shared links - ANYONE WITH LINK

Default permission for shared links - EDIT

Set an expiration new for links shared outside your team - NONE

Require password for links shared outside your team - OFF

Blanket links restriction - OFF

Transfer - ON

Adding outside folders - ON

Anything I can do, or do I need to buy a licence for the freelancers I want to have the option of adding "outside team member" to our shared folders?

Hey @FStobacco, what's the error you're seeing when you try to enable external users to share the folder with other external users, please?
