Permissions to Subfolder not granting acces to parent
SharePoint Online. Have a site that all users have read access to which has a single library with Project Folders (project 1, project 2, project 3) then subfolders 1,2, 3, 4 under each project. I h...
luvsql I am having a similar issue. The user can only acces the subfolder using a direct link. They can't see the parent folders. I hope someone find a solution and share it with us.
- You could create the permission structure with security groups (project 1, project 2, project 3 etc). Then add/remove user from the groups. That will simplify the maintenance. Make sure to break permission inheritance on the projects (subfolders)
- But the user/group should only access "Subfolder 4".
Library > Projects > Project 4 > Subfolder 4
If i give access to "Subfolder 4" the user won't see the folder "Project 4".
If i give access to "Project 4" the user will see all files/foder inside "Project 4"
I need the user to access "Library" and see only "Projects", access "Projects" and see only "Project 4", access "Project 4" and see only "Subfolder 4".
All the parent folders are full of files and folders inside them.Constantinismo I have exactly the same requirement. Did you already found an answer to that ?
Thanks
