To manage existing colleagues on the website, find the Colleague area of your profile page. Here you can view, approve, and remove colleagues.

Declining a colleague request cancels the request. When you decline the request, it is removed from your Pending Colleagues list and the requester’s Invited list.
The Invited colleagues list displays users to whom you have sent colleague invites. From this screen, you can delete requests that have not yet been accepted. See also: Viewing invited colleagues To view sent colleague requests, go to the Invited Colleagues area of your profile page.
Selected colleague is a special category of user who can be given access to documents and photos that regular colleagues cannot view. A user makes this designation when sharing a Workspace, which can be shared with the Public, all colleagues, or selected colleagues. See also: Sharing workspace content.
To change a selected colleague back to a colleague, check the box next to a selected colleague and click Update.
Grouping lets you organize colleagues by folder. For example, you place all family members in a "Family" folder. You can only group current colleagues, not colleagues who are pending or invited.
