Share Reports with Folders
Reports in your private folder are visible only to you. To share a report, save it, or move it, into a shared folder. Folders can be shared with users, roles, and public groups, with View, Edit, or Manage access. A useful setup for field teams:
Sharing a folder doesn’t change what records people can see. Each person sees only the FieldKo records their access allows, unless a dashboard runs as a specified user. See Share Report and Dashboard Folders in Lightning Experience in Salesforce Help. If you can’t create folders, ask your admin, who can follow Report Folders, Sharing, and Custom Report Types.
