Shared disks

Shared disks are special disks in Yandex 360 for Business that let employees store files, collaborate on them, and search for information. Each shared disk has a separate Trash folder.

Shared disks are available to employees granted access to them by the company administrator. Only the administrator can create, manage, and configure access to shared disks.

Employees can upload files to shared disks and perform the same actions with them as on their personal Yandex Disk: view, edit, move, and delete.
