Direct and inherited access

A file may already be accessible through its Canvas or Workspace. Removing a direct file share doesn’t revoke access someone has through that location. Direct shares appear under Shared with me. A recipient can copy a shared file into their work; they can’t move the original out of its owner’s location.

Choose what to share

Live file sharing uses members of the current organization. Publishing is a separate, public access choice.
