Access permission priority
Priority levels:
- Objects hierarchy (folders and files). Shared access objects can have two types of permissions: direct and inherited. If the nested object:
- has direct permissions, they take precedence over inherited permissions.
- If direct permissions are not established, then inherited permissions apply to such an object.
- Profile. Permissions to shared objects can be granted to individual users and/or a group of users. Thus, a user can have personal user permission to the same object, as well as the permissions of the group to which the user belongs. However:
- If the user has personal access permissions granted to them for an individual user, they take permission precedence over the access permissions granted to the group.
- If the user does not have personal access permissions, but the user belongs to several groups with different types of permissions, then the user will get access with a higher type of permissions.
- Type of access permissions. The following types of permissions can be granted to objects: Owner, Manage, Edit, Comment, View, Access denied.
- The Owner permission of access takes permission precedence over the permission Access denied.
- Access denied permission takes precedence over the permission Manage.
- Manage permission takes precedence over the Edit permission.
- Edit access permission takes precedence over the Comment permission.
- Comment access permission takes precedence over the View permission.
