Give access to the files with a specific column choice

Hi KatheSles,

there is no built-in way to restrict access to files in a Teams channel based on a column choice.

However, there are a few workarounds that you can use:

1. Use a separate channel for each column choice:

This is the simplest option, but it can be a bit complicated if you have a lot of column choices. To do this, create a separate channel for each column choice, and then assign the appropriate permissions to each channel.

2. Use a third-party tool:

There are a number of third-party tools that can help you to restrict access to files in Teams channels based on column choices. Some popular options include:

• AvePoint Collaboration Governance
• Colligo
• PointClick Solutions

3. Use a SharePoint library:

You can also use a SharePoint library to store your files, and then link to the SharePoint library from your Teams channel.
Once you have linked to the SharePoint library, you can use SharePoint's permissions system to restrict access to the files based on column choices.

This option is more complex than the others, but it offers the most flexibility and control.
