File Manager Permissions (ttfma1500m000)

Use this session to specify folder access and permissions for a user or a group of users within File Manager.

Users can only view and access folders for which they have permissions.

Note: To activate the permissions, you must select the Use File Manager Permissions check box in the Tools Parameters (ttaad0100m000) session.

After activating, the permissions also impact sessions with a prefilled path. The permissions impact, for example, data in user defaults or a path in sessions that run in the background or in a job. If a user has no modify permission for the prefilled path, the session cannot be executed.

After you specify and save your data, you can click Preview to start the Preview File Manager Permissions (ttfma1510s000)session in which you can specify the users for whom you want to preview the folder permission structure.
