Permissions In SharePoint
• Permissions can inherit from the parent site
• Permissions can also be unique (breaking inheritance)
• You can customize your permission groups down to a specific level of granularity
• For all permission options, see: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc721640(v=office.14).aspx
Site Permissions
• Site Actions• Site Permissions
Using SharePoint Groups For Permissions
The default groups are:• Full Control (Site Owners)• Contribute (Site Members)• Read (Site Visitors)• View Only (Viewers)
Why Groups Instead Of Individual People?
• Technically, you can add individual people to a permission list
• Using SharePoint groups makes it easier to administer permission changes.
Adding People To A SharePoint Group
Select the group to change and click New > Add Users:
Inheriting and Breaking Permissions
• Access the permissions for your list or site
• In this example, we’ll choose List Permissions from the ribbon bar
Inheriting and Breaking Permissions
• Stop Inheriting Permissions
• Remove User Permissions
Breaking Inheritance
Takes a snapshot of the parent permissions which you can then edit.
However, it doesn't take a snapshot of who is in the groups... just the fact that the group is in the permission list.
Therefore, you can't update the group in that specific site, thinking it will not affect anywhere else that group is used.
Who has permission?
• From the site ribbon bar, click Check Permission
• Enter the name of the user
• Check Now
?But wait… There’s More!
