Locating the iFolders in the Search Results
Scroll up and down to browse the search results and locate the iFolder you want to manage. The
combination of the iFolder’s name and owner help to identify the iFolder you seek.

You can view the members' name, type and access rights assigned to them. You are allowed to add
or delete an owner, assign ownership, and set access rights to a selected member. For more
information, see

In iFolder 3.2 and earlier, when an owner adds a user to an iFolder, the user does not become a
member until he or she accepts the iFolder on at least one computer. After the user accepts the
invitation and sets up the iFolder, the user shows up in the member list. But with iFolder 3.7 and
above versions, if you add the user or a LDAPGroup as a member of an iFolder from the Web
Access console, then the user or each LDAPGroup member is automatically becomes a member.
The user and the iFolder will show up in the Web access interface without the user setting up a local
iFolder on his or her computer.
Adding a Member
1 On the iFolder Details page, click Add .
2 Search for the user you want to make a member, select the check box next to the user’s name,
then click
OK .
The user is given Read Only access to the iFolder.
3 (Optional) Select the check box next to the user, then specify the Access right as Admin , Read
Write , or Read Only right.
4
Click Set .
Wait for the page to refresh. The Rights column should reflect the new access right. A
notification message inviting the user to participate is sent to the user’s account.
Understanding iFolder Access Rights
For an overview of access rights, see Section 1.4.8, “iFolder Access Rights,” on page 22 .
NOTE: Members of an LDAPGroup inherit the access rights set for that LDAPGroup.
