Configure ACLs

If Enable ACL was set to ON when the Virtual File System was created, you must now assign the Users or Groups allowed to access it.

Follow these steps:

1. Open the ACL assignment panel In the Virtual File System details page:

   1. Click the USER chip to manage user permissions

   2. Click the GROUP chip to manage group permissions

   If you do not see these chips, the padlock icon is open: ACLs are unmanaged, and the VFS is accessible to all users and groups.

2. Select who can access the VFS A window opens displaying two sections:

   1. Users (or Groups) assigned to the Actor: in this tab, you can assign External Users or External Groups associated with the Actor.

   2. Internal Users (or Groups): in this tab, you can assign Internal Users or Internal Groups defined at company level.

   Use the drop‑down menu to select the User or Group you want to authorize.

3. Set VFS permissions After selecting a User or Group, permissions can be configured by checking the relevant boxes.

   • Listing – view the content of the virtual path

   • Create – create new folders

   • Delete – delete files or folders

   • Download – download files

   • Rename – rename files or folders

   • Upload – upload files

   Each entry also provides a trash icon to remove the access rule completely.

4. Save to confirm.

A summary showing the number of authorized Users and Groups appears in the VFS or Virtual Path list.

When you create a child folder (a Virtual Path under another Virtual Path):

• Its ACL configuration is inherited from the parent.

• All permissions defined for the parent are automatically applied to its children.

This ensures consistent and predictable access management across the entire Virtual File System structure.
