Environment
U-M Dropbox
Issue
I opened a Dropbox Team Folder and noticed a folder is marked as "Limited" under the "Who can access" column. What does it mean?
Resolution
Note: It is normal and expected behavior for the Dropbox Team Folder (i.e., parent-level folder) to show as "Limited" under the "Who can access" column.
Within a Dropbox Team Folder, a subfolder can appear as having "Limited" permissions under the "Who can access" column. "Limited" means that the subfolder isn't shared with everyone who has access to the parent-level Team Folder. (For example, when someone shares a subfolder within a Team Folder, they will receive a message at the top of the sharing dialog box that states, "This folder isn't shared with everyone who has access to parent folder [Team Folder name]. Share with everyone.")
