Set team/group folder permissions

Team leaders and Group Masters have permission to edit all individual folders and can set access and editing permissions for members who have access to those folders.

Accessible members can be set only for team/group folders, not general message room folders.

Members will see a folder icon as shown below, based on the permissions granted to each folder.

  • : Folders without permission to access (only displayed on PC web)
  • : Folders with permission to edit
  • : Folders with permission to read

In folders that you don't have access to, both reading and editing are restricted.
