• Folder permissions control the level of access a user has to the contents of a top-level folder and its subfolders.
• Permission is granted to top-level folders only and is inherited by subfolders.
• Permission cannot be granted directly to subfolders; If you need to give exclusive access to a current subfolder you will need to first request that the subfolder be converted to a top-level folder.
• Supervisors or data owners must submit these requests. If the individual needing access sends in a request, their supervisor will be contacted for approval.
