Folder permissions

Easily view and manage folder permissions so that users can access ONLY the folders you want them to access.


Folder permissions

To see who can access a folder, enter or select the folder and click the Permissions blank icon in the Toolbar.

You will now see at a list of the users that have access to this folder (including sub-folders). You can change, add, or remove their folder permissions directly from this menu.

blank  View only = The user can view this folder and its content. But will not be able to download or upload files.

blank  View & Download = The user can view this folder and its content and can also download from this folder and subfolders.

blank  Full access = The user can view and download this folder and its content. He or she can also upload to this folder and subfolders. This is the default folder permission for all new users.


blank Remove = The user will no longer have access to this folder.


To add and manage users click the MANAGE USERS button. This will take you to Admin > Users where many more user specific actions can be performed.

TIP: If any of the folder permissions icons (blank  blank  blank) are greyed out, it is because the user has access through a parent folder. Hover the icon to see which folder the permission can be altered from.
Important: If no folders are listed in the Folder Permissions window, only Administrators will be able to access the folder.
