Please note: You must have Owner or Member role on the site you wish to share folder from.
Important: Sharing a folder will also share any nested sub-folders, take great care when deciding to share folders. Adhering to the principles of Zero-Trust, Microsoft and Fuse highly recommend sharing as little data, with as few people as possible, then removing access once it is not required.
Head over to SharePoint site which stores the file or folder you wish to share and select "Documents" Section from right-hand side ribbon. Then select the folder or file you wish to share and right-click on it.
You should see a new menu appearing, select manage access:
In the new pop-up window, select "Grant Access" Icon:
In the new screen, enter the email of a user you wish to share the file or folder with, you can also choose to notify user of granted access, this will be completed via email notification.
By pressing on the pencil icon, you will be able to select different levels of access to the folder/file.
