Set Folder Permissions

You can assign permissions on folders and other objects.

Access and Set Permissions

You can set permissions or change ownership for any catalog object or folder. Nonadministrative users can access and modify the permissions of the objects that they create or own.

To set folder permissions:

1. In the catalog, select the folder or object.

2. In the Tasks pane click Permissions.

3. In the Permissions dialog box, the owner and any other users, roles, or groups with permissions are listed in the Permissions list.

   • To add a user or role, click Add users/roles in the toolbar and search for users or roles to add them to the Selected Members list in the Add Application Roles, Catalog Groups and Users dialog box.

   • To delete a user or role, select the account or role in the Permissions list and click Delete selected users/roles.

4. In the Permissions list, to set ownership for a user, select Custom in the Permissions list for the account, then select Set Ownership in the Custom Permissions dialog box and click OK. You can also select the Owner option for the user or role.

5. Use the Permissions list to set permissions for the object. Object permissions vary by object.

6. Use the Apply permissions to sub-folders option to assign permissions to the folder's subfolders.

7. Use the Apply permissions to items within a folder to assign them to objects in the folder but not to subfolders.
