Your API target folder is the folder all your safedrops are sent to and stored in, until they are expired or self destructed. Users must have collaborator access to the API target folder in order to be able to send safedrops.

How to choose the API target folder.

As a manager, login and navigate to the document library.

To do this, click on the ‘Admin’ button at the top of the page and then click ‘add users’.
