Outlook on the Web - Share an Email Folder

Grant permissions to view folders in your account

To share a folder, we must first grant rights to view folders in your email account. Don’t worry, this will not allow other accounts to view your entire email account. This step simply allows other accounts to view only the folders shared with them.

1. In Outlook on the Web, right-click on Folders and select Permissions
2. Click the + button to add a new to share email folders with.
3. Enter the email address or Bronco NetID of the person you want to give permissions to and click Add.
    
4. Click the name of the account you added and make sure the Folder Visible box is checked. Click the OK button.
   

Share the folder you want others to access

Now that we have granted permission to view shared folders in your account we can now choose a folder to share.

1. Right-click on the folder you would like to share and click Permissions. 
   
2. Click the + button to add the account you would like to share with. 
3. Enter the email address or Bronco NetID of the person you want to give permissions to and click Add.
    
4. Click the name of the account you added and select the sharing permissions you would like to grant. Use the Permission Level drop-down to select from common presets or use the checkboxes for advanced sharing permissions. Click the OK button.
   
5. Notify the share recipient that a shared folder is available.  The person you shared the folder with will need to accept the share.
