If I created files on Google team drive and added a third party to it, what happens to the files in the Team Drive if my email got deleted? Will the third party still has access to those files?

Best Answer

Adding a file to a Shared Drive (formerly Team Drive) makes the Shared Drive the owner of the file.

If you delete your user account nothing will happen to the above file, it will remain on the Shared Drive. By the other hand if the organization account is deleted, all the content on the Shared Drives of that organization will eventually complete deleted an it will not possible to recover them.
