does the storage upgrade automatically get shared with family members

If I upgrade my icloud storage to a higher plan, and I am 'family sharing', how do I do that? Does it automatically share with the other members in my family?

How to move family members from their own icloud storage plan to my shared plan? I and my family members have been paying for individual iCloud storage plans (well, I've been paying for them all) and just switched my plan to 2TB shared plan. Now when I go into Family Sharing it shows "Not Used" for the other two family members and I cannot see where to get them switched over rather than continuing to pay individually. How is this done?

No, it doesn't happen automatically. Follow these steps:
