    FAQ | Request file access permissions for others

    I. Intro
    If you aren't authorized to share a file, you can request access permission from its owner on behalf of others, even if the owner didn't enable link sharing. 
    II. Steps
    1. 1.​Open the file, and click Share in the upper-right corner.
    1. 2.​Under Invite collaborators, enter the names of people or groups you want to invite in the placeholder, or click on Add people to invite. 
    1. 3.​Click on Ask owner to share in the bottom-left corner of the Share panel and set whether the person or group Can view or Can edit the file. 
    1. 4.​Feel free to leave a message to the file owner before clicking Send Request. Once the file owner approves your request, people you invited will have access to the file.
