You can add or edit existing access permissions and roles to a file or folder in the Igloo Flex Mobile app to help organize your organization's files stored in Igloo Flex's File Manager.
Considerations
- Access changes: Access permissions changes update for affected users the next time they log in to the Igloo Flex Mobile app.
- Remove access: To completely remove access for a user or group, see Remove access permissions for a file or folder in the app.
- Owner role: When adding users or groups with the file manager role of owner, primary file ownership is not transferred if there is a current file owner. To transfer primary ownership, see Transfer file or folder ownership in the app.
Who can do this?
- Workplace administrators
- Users with file manager roles of owner or full for the current file or folder
