Background
To share a folder in G Suite you can
- Explicitly share by inviting people on your enterprise to the folder.
- Implicitly share by creating content within a shared folder or enabling a link public to your enterprise.
Users can then move shared content to any unshared folder in their drive. Once moved to their drive, it is visible by SkySync.
SkySync interprets G Suite sharing as follows
- If you are the sharer, both the shared folder and its contents, including implicitly shared items with the sharer, will be seen as shared by you.
- If you are the sharee and move a shared folder to your drive, both the shared folder and its contents will be seen as shared to you, except content explicitly shared by you.
SkySync transfers G Suite shared content as follows
During transfer, while excluding shared content, including both initial transfer and subsequent transfers (e.g. events within that shared folder):
- The sharer's job will be responsible for transferring all content and permissions on the shared folder hierarchy.
- The sharee's job will skip the folder shared to them (and its hierarchy).
