1. How do I enable shared users to create reports?
You can allow your shared users to create reports in one of the following ways:

By adding them as workspace administrators in your workspace. Refer this documentation to learn more about workspace administrators.
2. How do I access the reports created by shared users?
You can access the reports created by your shared users only if they are shared with you. However, reports created by a workspace administrator will be accessible by the user who owns the workspace (workspace owner), and other workspace administrators by default.

If the table or query table is no longer shared with you. Please contact your administrator to request access to the data.
If the report had been deleted. To recover the deleted report, click the Trash option from the side panel to view the deleted report. Views that have been deleted will be available in the Trash folder for 45 days, and can be restored.
