Rights management and creation of the project folders

Information: Only project admins can assign rights to the "Project folder". => What can project admins do?

To create a project folder, click on “Files” (1.). Then click on “Project Storage” (2.).

Variant 1: Click on the + Add button (3.) and in the menu that appears click on + Create folder (4.).

Variant 2: Click directly on the + Create folder button (5.). This variant is only available if no project folders have been created yet.

Name the new folder (yellow highlighted area) and then click the Add button.

A new window will open in which you can now determine which organizations or roles should receive read and write rights. You can also activate Notification so that participants are notified of new uploads. To do this, click on the respective checkbox (1., 2. and 3.). Read permission, write permission and notification apply to the folder and all its subfolders. You can search or filter by role, by a specific organization, by person and by rights (fields highlighted in yellow). Then click on Set rights (4.).

Note: Changes to rights are passed on to subfolders when they are saved. Subfolders cannot have fewer rights than their main folders. However, subfolders can have more rights than their main folders.

If you want to customize the rights management, click on the three dots (1.) and then on Rights management (2.).
