- To gain access to a file, use this process:
- User is invited to the portal, and accepts it.
- The User is added to a Workspace.
- File/Folder permissions are set to Read or Edit for User.
- A portal admin does not have default access to all workspaces (but he/she can add him/herself as a member of any WS).
- A user with WS access does not have default access to content in the WS, but needs to have some File/Folder permissions set first.
- Objects inherits permissions from the parent folder.
- Inherited permissions can be overridden by setting permissions explicitly for that object.
- Explicitly set permissions overrides inherited permissions (for e.g. if the user is a member of a group, it overrides).
