Click Grant Access or Share, and enter the user’s name or email address. Select their desired permission level (e.g., Read, Edit). Before finalizing, ensure to uncheck or disable the Notify by Email option. Once done, click Share or Grant Access, and the user will be granted access without receiving an email notification.
