User restriction on "root"

[Walter.Koller]

It should be possible to apply restrictions not only on folder but on their parents / root of the folder hierarchy.

Currently it is possible to create folder and apply restriction but user are able to create their own folders. Those folders can lead to quite uncontrolled environment (who can read/modify for which team). At least it can keep some people busy to remind users and clean-up the structures.

Hi @Walter.Koller,

Thanks for taking the time to raise an idea.

It should be possible to achieve what you describe today using existing MTE access rights in Design Studio. If you create a folder and apply restrictions to it, you should be able to grant/deny individual user roles the ability to create folders within the restricted folder, preventing them from adding additional folders and/or changing existing ones as required.

Can you confirm whether this would meet your requirements and, if not, what the desired outcome is you'd like to drive towards?

I'm going to mark this idea as Needs More Info awaiting your reply.

Regards,

Rob
