When a file owner shares a data file or folder with another CyVerse user, the recipient receives a notification message about the shared data item and the Shared With Me folder is displayed. You can access the file either from the Notifications list or from the Shared With Me folder in the Data window. The permissions you have for the shared item are set by the file owner who shared the data item with you. By default, permissions are set to read only. For more information, see Changing and Viewing Data Permission Levels in the DE. In the Data window, click to open the Shared With Me folder. | Tip |
