Assigning Permissions

Permissions determine which users or groups have access to a specific folder or asset.  You may grant read or write permissions to multiple individual users, or multiple groups.

To specify permissions for a folder or asset:

1. Select the folder or asset from the left asset tree
2. Click on the Access tab.
3. To specify one or more users, select each desired user from the Unassigned box, and click the green forward arrow to bring them into the Read box.  Once users have been entered into Read box, you can then select from those users which ones you want to have Write access.  Users left in the Unassigned box will have the default permissions level, as specified under All.
4. To specify one or more groups, select each desired group from the Unassigned box, and click the green forward arrow to bring them into the Read box.  Once groups have been entered into Read box, you can then select from those groups which ones you want to have Write access. Groups left in the Unassigned box will have the default permissions level, as specified under All.
5. You may also restrict the folder or asset for all users by selecting the appropriate radio button under All. This will determine the default level of permissions for any users not specified above.
   
6. If you are defining permissions for a folder, select whether or not these permissions should be replicated for all child folders by checking or unchecking Apply to children.
7. Click Submit to save your changes.

Additional Notes

If a user or group is given read or write access to a child folder, read access is automatically granted to all parent folders and higher to facilitate navigation to the specified folder.
