SharePoint "Check Permissions" Feature
Hi, I have a few questions regarding the "Check Permissions" feature in SharePoint. I'm trying to document the process for removing a member from the SP site entirely, and to to this they need to be removed from the site, any groups they're part of, any files they have access to etc. I'm using the "check permissions" feature to view user permissions, and in doing so I can see the premissions the user has, as well as how they were granted this access, namely through a particular group (see image below) I have several questions regarding the image. 1. I am confused as to what this is actually telling me. As an example, the user has "Full Control, Limited Access, Web-Only Limited Access" given through a particular group, but what does this actually mean? Access to what, or to do what? Is it the access to do what is listed in the "Permission Levels" section? Some of these categories are also listed in the "Permission Levels" section, but there's no sign of "Limited Access" so I'm not sure what that grants to the user. 2. Regarding the blank entries (i.e. the ones that do not state how the user was granted access), how can I find out this information? Since I need to remove the user entirely from the site, I also need to find out what is granting them access so I can "unlink" them from that also. Hopefully that makes sense and thanks in advance for any help.
