To give clients with multiple sites the ability to view them in one place would add lots of value to Cloud for us. Being able to share a folder of projects would be the perfect to achieve this.
Help to get this achieved would be appreciated so vote if you agree please
Hello @mark5
Thanks for your feedback.
We are currently working on offering a solution similar to what you ask for for enterprise users. We hope that very soon we can make it accessible.
Have a very nice day!
Best regards

Hoping this is still moving along. We have numerous clients with multiple sites and sharing a link to a folder would be huge. Having to send multiple links, or having numerous unlabeled datasets in a site is not the best workflow.
Hi @chrisk, progress is being made on making it possible to more easily manage access to datasets and sites.
Unfortunately, I don’t have more information at the moment about the project’s progress or timeline.
You can count on us to share when you can start sharing data with clients more easily.
Thank you for your patience and for voting on this feature request.
Hi, we would love to see some progress on this. Being able to share a group of projects to a client who pays for multiple projects makes a lot of sense.
Currently clients are having to keep track of multiple links which is really painful for them and significantly impacts the value and useability of cloud
Has this functionality been added. We have clients with multiple sites (projects) within a folder. Currently have to share each site with them. Sharing just the folder would be much better.
Hi @mark5, @Dan_Ausley,
I understand your concerns about creating, sharing, and then keeping track of a unique link for each PIX4Dcloud dataset and site.
The ability to more easily manage access to datasets and sites by sharing a folder instead of a set of links is not available today.
In the meantime, we do offer the option to manage access to PIX4Dcloud datasets and sites using roles instead of links with Pix4D’s organization management.
With Pix4D’s organization management, you can create one organization for each of your clients or projects. Then invite your clients to log in with their own Pix4D account and access all of the datasets and sites in that organization.
This way, you and your clients will no longer have to create, share, and manage links to individual PIX4Dcloud datasets and sites.
Please note that with Pix4D’s organization management, each Pix4D organization is a distinct entity that requires its own PIX4Dcloud license to process and, more importantly, save PIX4Dcloud datasets. Consequently, using Pix4D’s organization management as a workaround would require that each organization you create for the data sets of each client would need its own PIX4Dcloud license.
For example, let’s imagine you work with three clients and each of those clients works with a different set of PIX4Dcloud datasets and sites. In that case, with Pix4D’s organization management, you would:
- Create one Pix4D organization for each client.
- Move all of the datasets and sites to the corresponding organization.
- Add each client to their corresponding Pix4D organization with one of the four roles, i.e., Owner, Manager, Editor, or Reader.
More information about roles and general organization management is at Cloud products within an organization.
To start working with Pix4D’s organization management, please:
- Go to Contact support.
- For Product or topic your request is about / Product you are using, select Organization support.
- Once you have access to Pix4D organization management, create one organization for each client, move the PIX4Dcloud datasets and sites to the corresponding organization, and then invite your clients to join the organization.
You can count on us to let you know as soon as possible when you and your clients can start sharing and accessing your PIX4Dcloud datasets by sharing a link to a folder instead of a unique line for each dataset or site.
Using this feature, does it require a different subscription?

@Dan_Ausley, no, Pix4D’s organization support does not require an additional or different license or subscription.
However, the information I shared at Ability to Share a Folder of Projects to clients with multiple Sites flown regularly - #7 by Andrew_McIntyre fails to account for the fact that with Pix4D’s organization management, each organization is effectively a separate entity that requires its own PIX4Dcloud license to process and, more importantly, save PIX4Dcloud datasets.
With that in mind, it is possible to use Pix4D’s organization management to more easily share datasets with third, but that would require that each organization you create for each client own a PIX4Dcloud license.
I’m terribly sorry for the error and trouble this may have caused.
You can count on us to let you know as soon as possible when you and your clients can start sharing and accessing your PIX4Dcloud datasets by sharing a link to a folder instead of a unique line for each dataset or site.
It appears this feature is only available to enterprise users, which we are not.
