Look up the "Request Files" feature

Mike Williams I was talking with director he would prefer a solution in which the user with limited privileges (read folders content and upload new files, but neither editing nor deleting the uploaded files or the files yet on folders) can see the cloud folders in a filesystem view (typical Windows like) and using features like drag&drop for example.

- germanodOct 16, 2020Copper ContributorHi Mike Williams,
Thanks for your reply.
The feature you suggested me is interesting, I'll surely deepen it.
I have only a question: Do you have idea if the link is permanent? I mean, when a folder has the "Request files"feature enabled, is the link to that folder always working or should it be generated sometimes (or every time)?
If the links are permanent, I could create a list of links to all the subfolders in which the employers can upload the proper files and make them upload what it's needed.
Which is instead a way to give to a specific user read-only permission to a folder (and its subfolders)?
Thanks and Regards
