WorkDrive allows admins to view and manage all shared files and folders in a team folder or a member's My Folders from the Data Administration tab in the Admin Console.
Admins can view the list of all shared items and track which items are shared with whom, which are shared externally, which are shared across the team, and more. You can also update or remove share permissions if required.
