I. Creating Proxy Folder on Apollo Cloud for Collaboritive Use
1. Open the Apollo Cloud Application.
2. Create a folder on the Apollo with the naming convention of your choice.
2A. The folder can be created by the Administrator of the Apollo or any of the Apollo Members that are registered on the device.

4. Once you've created the folder, you should share this folder with the members that need to access this media.
