# How to Share Documents with Custom Groups

## Do you often need to share documents with multiple people across events like Raise, Shares, and Pitch, or share monthly updates with your investors?

With our **“Custom Groups**” feature, you can now create and name custom groups, easily share multiple documents or entire folders at once, and automatically grant access to new group members, without having to reshare everything manually.

Even better, when you add new members to a custom group, they’ll instantly get access to all previously shared documents in the group’s folders. No more repetitive sharing!

 

Please follow these simple steps to create groups, name them, and share folders with them.

**Step 1: Navigate to Settings at the bottom left corner of the navigation panel.**

To create a Custom Group, first go to ***Settings*** at the bottom left corner of the page. Then click “Groups” \> + Create Group.

**Step 2:** **Create the Custom Group name and start adding members.**

Enter the name of the group in the bar, and start adding members by clicking their name to add them to the group and click “save”.
