Folder Access Rights

Learn more about controlling access to documents by assigning group permissions on folders.

Access to documents is governed by group access rights set on containing folders. When you add a group to a folder, you assign one of four roles to the group. These roles govern what permissions members within a particular group have on a designated folder and the documents within it.

The table below outlines the permissions associated with each role that can be assigned to groups on a folder.
