Permissions

Permissions define what a user can do with a particular folder and its contents. Individual users have certain folder permissions. In order to allow another user access to one of your private folders, you have to grant the user certain permissions for that folder. This is called sharing the folder. Please note the following:

  • You cannot share specific items, only complete folders.

  • Think about the permissions needed by another user. If a user e.g. should only read folder contents, write permission for that folder is not needed. You can not share specific items, only complete folders.

A description of permissions can be found in : Which permissions can be granted?. A listing of preset permissions for specific folders can be found in in : Permissions for folders that already exist and in : Permissions for new folders. Information on granting permissions can be found in : Sharing folders.
