Options under the three- dot against each folder:
- Add File: Allows you to add a file inside the folder.
When a file is created or edited in Confidential mode, the owner is granted full rights edit, delete, download/share. These permissions cannot be changed or overridden.
- Add Folder: Allows you to add subfolder inside the created folder.
- Share: Folders are not shared directly, allows sharing file(s) inside the folder (if permissions) with colleagues within the organisation or with external stakeholders.
Permissions on the Share folder depend on each file’s permissions which is initially derived from the Master Data → Access Permissions and role-based access levels.
