Exporting and Importing

You can export and import folders in the explorer tree. For detailed information see page Exporting and Importing Explorer Contents.

Managing the Folder Permissions

Info

You can also set access restriction to restrictions on several levels:

  • On a namespace in the user management
- and this has priority:
  • : This level has the highest priority. If a namespace with read-only permission is already assigned to the user in the user management, the permission set in the Designer has no effect. For further information go to the Scheer PAS Administration Guide.
  • On a folder: See below. Folder permissions affect all sub-elements of the folder, but you can assign permissions to a service within the folder independently.
  • On a service: See Services. Service permissions only affect the corresponding service.

Select the option Permissions in the context menu if you want to manage the access to a folder.

In the pop-up window Permission Administration you can invite single colleagues or whole groups to access the folder.

By default, the creator of the folder and everyone sharing the current namespace has write permissions.

Info

To limit access to the folder you can delete the group Everyone or give it read-only permission.
If you want to restore the permission for Everyone, select option Invite Group first. You can then search for the group and add it again.

If you want to add other users, first select one of the options:

  • Invite Group: Allow whole user groups to access your folder. Available groups are all distribution lists that have been created as a Role in the user management.
  • Invite People: Add single users to your folder and grant them read or write permission.
Tip

Go to page Managing Roles in the ADMIN for detailed information about roles.
