Can users on my team share files with each other? 

Only Admins can share Projects with users outside the team. Users within a team can share projects with each other and add other users. Here's how: 

A user can add other users to a project by sharing the Project.

A user can only share a Project with users in the Team. 

A user can only share a Project with users who have the same or lower permission setting. 

Different Permissions for Different Users, Teams, & Projects

Team Members

You can add a user to your Team to give them access to all projects in your account, without having to add them to each project one by one. By default, users added to your Team have full View, Edit & Process permissions. You can still upgrade or limit permissions for each user added to a team by changing permission settings in your Profile, under Teams & members.

Project Members

If you do not want to share all projects in your Team with a user, you can add the user to a specific Project. When you add the user to the Project, you will be prompted to select a permission level for that user in that Project.

You can add the same user to several projects and set different permission levels for each project. 

Belong to Multiple Teams & Projects

If a user belongs to multiple projects, they can select which project they are using from the drop-down menu in the "Create new project" screen and the "Process new model" screen.   

Sharing Among Team Members & Project Members 

For users who belong to a Team, they can invite other members of the Team to a Project, if the user they are inviting has the same level of permission. That means View-only team members can invite other View-only team members to a project, but they cannot invite a View & Edit or View, Edit, & Process member to a project.
