- Customizing access to folders or files
Customizing access to folders or files
Entities (individuals, groups, or members of an email domain) can access
workspace folders and files, based on the permissions you selected.
Permissions can be adjusted by applying different permission levels. When
adding new entities, you can also select if you want to give them access to all workspace
folders and subfolders or to add them only to the selected item and any subitems that inherit
permissions.
If you choose to allow only certain entities to access a certain folder or
file, this creates broken inheritance with the parent workspace or folder, and the item icon
is marked with a broken chain;
.

If you choose to only give permissions to a folder and subitems that inherit
permissions, this will break inheritance for the folder, and for all child items as well. All
subfolders or files under that folder, will inherit the permissions set for that folder.
If you choose to give permissions to a folder and all subitems, this will
override broken inheritance for the folder all subfolders and child items.
