Your Account: Groups

A group is a named list of people you share with. Find your groups on the Groups tab of your account page.

Step by Step: Make a Group and Invite People

  1. Open your account page and click the Groups tab.
  2. Type a name in New group name and click Create group. How many groups and members you can have depends on your plan. The account page shows your limits.
  3. Under Groups you own or admin, open the group.
  4. In Invite by email, type an address. Add an optional message.
  5. Click Invite. The person shows under Unconfirmed.
  6. If they have not answered, click Resend, or use the copy-invite-link button and send the link yourself.
  7. When they accept, they move to Active.

Managing Members

Each active member has buttons to Make admin (or Remove admin), Make owner and an X to remove them. Admins have a badge. Delete group removes the group. Members can leave a group themselves.

Step by Step: Answer an Invite

  1. Open the Groups tab.
  2. Under Pending invites, find the invitation.
  3. Click Accept or Decline.
  4. Groups you belong to are listed under Groups you belong to, each with a Leave button.

Sharing With a Group

  1. In the viewer, click Share.
  2. Pick A group, then choose the group.
  3. Tick what members may do and send. See Sharing a Model.
  4. To share a whole folder, see Sharing a Folder. A group share on a folder follows the folder, so models you add later reach the group too.

Tips and Common Problems

  • Create group is refused. You have reached the number of groups your plan allows. Move up a plan or delete one. See Plans and Billing.
  • An invite never arrived. Click Resend, or copy the invite link and send it yourself.
  • Members cannot see a model. Check that the model, or its folder, is shared to the group.
