Access Control Setting

What is Access Control Setting?

You can control access to folders in the common space on an account or group basis.
The following six types of access modes are available:

No Access Unable to view files or folders, thus resulting in no access.
Unable to access error message will appear if a specific URL address is entered in a web browser.
*1 :  Requires Read Only access on source folder and Read/Write access on destination folder.
*2 :  Revision settings cannot be carried out when an access mode that does not allow actions to be modified is set.
"No Access" occurs when neither "Read/Write" nor "Read Only" is set. If you want to assign "No Access" to an account or group, you need to separate the account/group and assign different sets of access control.
By default, the pseudo group "everyone" has Read/Write access to the Top folder. Subfolder inherits parent's access control settings unless changed manually.
If the account belongs to multiple groups with conflicting settings, Read/Write takes precedence.

Example 1

We use the figures below to cite an example:
Example 2

Account Management TOP F-A F-A-1 F-B F-B-1 F-B-2
Group A o o Δ x x x
  Account a o o o o o Δ
  Account b o o Δ x x x
  Account c o o Δ x x x
Group B o o Δ o o Δ
  Account d o o Δ o o o
  Account e o o Δ o o Δ
  Account a o o o o o Δ
Group C o o o o o o
  Account f o o o o o o
  Account g o o o o o o
  Account h o o o o o o
  o : Read/Write    Δ : Read Only    x : No Access

By default, pseudo group “everyone” has “Read/Write” to the Top folder. All users have “Read/Write” access, as a result.

Folder F-A has no access control set and thus inherits the setting from the Top folder. For folder F-A-1, Group A and Group B have “Read Only”, whereas Group C has “Read/Write”. Account A is an exception and has “Read/Write” access. Account A is individually assigned “Read/Write” access even though the account belongs to both Group A and Group B.

For folder F-B, Group B and Group C have “Read/Write”. Group A has no setting explicitly set and therefore has no access. Account A, however, has “Read/Write” access since the account belongs to Group B. Folder F-B-1 has no access control set and thus inherits the setting from F-B. For folder F-B-2, Group B has “Read Only”, and Group C has “Read/Write”. Even though Account D belongs to Group B, the account has “Read/Write” due to the individually assigned access setting.
