Questions tagged [google-drive-shared-drive]

Use this tag for questions related to items stored in a Google Workplace "Shared Drive" (formerly Team Drive). Shared Drives offer members a shared directory in which all files and folders are owned by the team, rather than individual users. Special support is needed in applications due to the different ownership and file directory model.

Shared Drives (formerly Team Drives) are a type of organisation space within Google Drive that supports files owned by an organisation rather than an individual user. Shared Drive files must have exactly one parent folder, much like files on a hard drive. This means that Shared Drive files belong to a single Shared Drive and are located in a single location within that Shared Drive. Having a single location simplifies permission rules for Shared Drive files.
