Adjust Link Settings for a Folder

You can choose to prohibit public links for an individual folder if you need to. You can also change the role that’s automatically assigned to people when public links are created.

For example, maybe you chose the default role of Viewer for most of your folders, but for one folder, you'd like a default role of Downloader. This helps you customize link behavior for specific folders.

To set the link behavior, access the Properties for the folder in either the desktop app or your browser. Then click Sharing and adjust the values as needed.
