Terminology and Specification Guide

Folder source Group

  • A Group that can share Manuals within its own Group with another Group on a per-Folder basis
  • Can create a Cross-group shared set
  • Can invite the destination Group to the Cross-group shared set to share Folders

Folder destination Group

  • A Group that becomes able to view Manuals in the source Group's Folder by receiving a share
  • Can join the Cross-group shared set by receiving an invitation from the source Group

Cross-group shared set

  • A collection of one source Group and one or more destination Groups
  • Creating a Cross-group shared set is the first step that enables Folder sharing by the source Group
  • Once a Group joins one Cross-group shared set, it cannot join a different Cross-group shared set

Folder Administrator of the destination Group

  • The Folder Administrator of the source Group is set automatically. It cannot be changed to another user
  • This role exists in the destination Group as a permission, but due to the following specifications, it cannot interfere with the destination Group
    • Logging in to the destination Group is not possible
    • Changing Folder settings in the destination Group (such as adding Viewers or changing the Folder Sub-Administrator) is not possible

Folder Sub-Administrator of the destination Group

  • A permission that allows adding Viewers to shared Folders and adding, changing, or deleting Folder Sub-Administrators
  • Immediately after receiving an invitation, the Group administrator of the destination Group is designated

How to Share Folders

Sharing becomes possible when the source Group creates a Cross-group shared set and invites the destination Group.
