Add a File
Files stored in the .POSITIONS_HOME folder are not visible to other users unless the user searches using the file name. Although files can be shared from within the .POSITIONS_HOME folder, you may want to store them outside of the .POSITIONS_HOME folder to ensure users can find them.
Permissions
When you create a file, you can specify whether other users can change it. The following permissions are available:
-
Edit – Allows others to view a file and make changes to it.
-
Edit/Delete – Allows users to view, edit, and delete a file. Files deleted by the user are moved to the Recycle Bin; only an administrator can restore them.
-
Read Only – Makes a file visible to users but does not allow them to modify it.
These permissions are set for individual files based on groups. The same permissions are applied to all users in an assigned group.
