Google Drive – Share with Apps Workgroup Without Manual Addition

google-appsgoogle-drive

I thought the video about sharing with my workgroup mean that I didn't have to add my teammates as editors if I allowed my company to see and edit a doc:

So far I had to add them to the list to get them to see the document on the Shared With Me list. Is there a way to share a document company-wide without having to manually select which members are allowed?

Best Answer

If you share with people individually, it will appear on their "Shared with me" list. If you share via a domain/find (or group) it will not appear there (but will appear in search).

One effective approach to make team collaboration work smoothly is to create a folder (for your team/project/org), share the folder with domain/find and then tell people to search for that folder and drag it to their "My Drive". Any docs put into that folder will inherit the security of the folder and be visible to people who have the folder it in My Drive.
