SharePoint Online Access Rights on Shared Folders.

Hello!

We have a web-site on SharePoint Online, specially dedicated for our developers team, and i have a specific request from them. Teams asking me: can we make a specific access rights for the clients where they can upload files in the shared folders, but can't delete same files afterwards.

 

What i need to have for this?

    aero2466This is Surely Possible you will have to create custom permission with Contribute no delete option...

     

    Creating New permission Levels

    Go to the gear icon on the Sharepoint > Site Permissions > Advance Permissions Settings > Permission Level > Add A permission Level Or open Contribute and at the bottom, it will say copy permission Level do so and name it > Name the new Permission and uncheck the Delete Item and Delete Version > Click Create

     

    Now Go back to the Folder/Library > Manage Access > Advance > Stop inheriting Permission and add the members you want > While adding select Show options > in Select a permission level = chose the recently created permission whatever you name it could contribute no Delete > Click Share

     

    You Are done with this setting let me know if you have any issues i have done the same and it is working fine for me...

      Sorry, but it don't work as expected. After all settings i made users still can work with they uploaded files because they can't Delete but can Rewrite uploaded files. Can i Deny to rewrite Uploaded files somehow?

      Will this work for Guest users or only for authenticated users?
