Share storage to create common, synchronized folders. Those you invite will see the same files and folders. And any new files or file updates automatically synchronize with everyone.
Click on the "Spaces" header tab above to manage your shared storage folders.
Click "+ Share Storage" to open the setup form.
Provide a distinct name for the folder.
Choose the folder you want to share (underlying storage location). You can create a new empty folder or share an existing folder.
Enter the emails of the people you'd like to invite. Separate multiple emails with commas (e.g. aric@odrive.com, peter@odrive.com, tony@odrive.com)
Select the "Share" button when you've added all members to be invited.
Spaces you create will appear under a "Spaces" folder in your own desktop sync client's odrive folder. Spaces that you have joined but did not create will appear among the other links at the root of your odrive folder.
Removing a space removes it from your Spaces folder and makes it unreachable by all the members of that space. The content in that space will NOT BE DELETED and will remain in the underlying storage location you chose when you created the space.
Spaces don't have a hard limit on the number of members, but they are primarily designed for small groups or teams. You may find that administering shared storage for large teams
starts to become cumbersome or cost prohibitive eventually for larger teams that need lots of spaces. If you want to share storage with many people, check out our "Organizations"
(coming soon).
Not yet. But this feature may be available with future updates.
Important Announcement
Effective March 31, 2026
odrive will discontinue its free consumer offering
Over the past several years, we've learned a great deal about how our users work and what they need from a sync and storage management solution. Based on these insights, and in response to evolving market and partner dynamics, odrive is shifting its focus to concentrate on supporting business and enterprise cloud storage workflows.
This shift allows us to dedicate our product development and customer support to the teams and organizations that rely on odrive as a critical part of their daily operations, delivering a stronger and more tailored experience.
What this means for you
If you're currently on a free account and want to continue using odrive, you'll need to upgrade to a paid plan by March 31. As a subscriber, you'll have full access to odrive's capabilities, including:
Complete control over sync and unsync workflows
Storage optimization through selective unsyncing
Priority customer support
Need more time?
We understand this may require some planning. If March 31 doesn't work for your timeline, please reach out to us. We're happy to discuss extensions on a case-by-case basis.
Ready to upgrade?
Contact us at sales@odrive.com to explore your options.
Thank you for being part of the odrive community. We're excited to continue building for the teams and businesses that make odrive part of how they work.
