Permission to create folders or not
Hello Friends!
Is there a way i can manage permission that people can't make folders? But can create files?
So i keep the folder structure?
Have a nice day!
Hello fbjecontadk
not possible with permission, folder are also elements and contribute or edit can add, update and delete them by default. Here are more informations: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-US/sharepoint/understanding-permission-levels?WT.mc_id=DX-MVP-5004845
But you can turn off folders on your library 🙂 https://support.microsoft.com/en-gb/office/create-a-folder-in-a-document-library-3d6a8c11-2490-4d6b-8837-f25649a69c56#__foldersoninonline?WT.mc_id=DX-MVP-5004845
