Set separate folder permissions based on name or tag

Question

Hi.

In our Team Folder we would like to set custom permission to certain folders. Despite the parent folder, which is writable by a group of people, these subfolders should be readonly for everyone except a restricted group.

So, basically, given a structure like this:

Team folder
|+ Folder1
 |+ Sub1
 |+ Sub2
 |+ Readonly
|+ Folder2
 |+ Sub3
 |+ Sub2
 |+ Readonly

we would like all folders named Readonly to be read only for the "main" group, and be rw for another user group.

Is this something that can be done automatically, by setting a rule by file name or by tag assignment? Or shall we change permissions manually, one by one?

Thanks

Thank you for the feedback, we'll see how to manage it otherwise.

Welcome back to our forum, @lorenzomilesi!

At the moment, I’m afraid this isn’t possible.

What you can do instead is create different groups with the users you want, based on the access you want them to have to the folder, so that it's easier to change the permissions each time.

Hope this helps a bit.
