- Manager: Full access to settings and member management.

- Contributor: Can create but not organize content.
- Commenter: Can only comment.
- Viewer: Can only view content.
- Creating a Shared Drive: Users can create a new Shared Drive by selecting the Shared Drives label, naming it, and saving it. Themes can be customized from a gallery or by uploading an image.
- Managing Members: Members can be added via their email, with role assignments and notification options. Google Groups can also be used for bulk permissions.
