Use the Files page to access shares and files from MCM.
Share/Folder/File Color
Shares, folders, and files are shown in one of three colors based on the permission settings for user and Team Portal:
- Grey - Read/write
- Orange - Read-only
- Red - No Access
The permission of the Business Administrator is not restricted by user's permission settings and ACL settings but is restricted by Team Portal permission.
When the option "Operate all files as admin" is enabled, the permission of Global administrators will not be restricted by user's permission settings and ACL settings but will be restricted by Team Portal permission (the same with Business Admin). But if the "Operate all files as admin" option is disabled, Global Administrators will be treated as regular users for accessing files.
"Operate all files as admin" option can be set on MCM - Account - Edit GA Permissions page, please refer to Account.
Lock icon
If a file is locked, it will appear with the following icon:
Mouse over the icon for more information about the file lock. Locked files can still be opened read-only or downloaded by other users.
Modified & Version Date
"Modified" is file content modification time, and "Version Date" is the new version created time on the server side.
For file:
Operations | will update "Modified" | will update the "Version Date" |
Update file | √ | √ |
Rename file | x | √ |
Change the property (like Read-only, Hidden, Archive, ACL, and Owner) of the file | x | x |
Delete file | x | √ |
For folder:
Operations | will update "Modified" | will update the "Version Date" |
Only change properties (like Read-only, Hidden, Archive, and ACL) of the folder (without file/subfolder operations in the folder) | x | x |
Rename folder | x | √ |
Delete folder | x | √ |
Note: Modifying a file in the folder will modify the "Modified" time of the folder on the Samba side, but it will not sync to MCM. If change the folder's property like ACL, the new "Modified" time of the folder will be synced to MCM, "Version Date" will not change.
Navigation Bar
Use the Navigation Bar to navigate to parent folders, view deleted files, refresh the file listing, and filter the files shown.
Operations
Team Portal Files options have been separated into two types: File operations and File management, we use “||” to separate the two options.
- File operations: Create Folder, Upload File, Download, Share Link, Rename, Copy, Move, Delete, Edit Security.
- File management: Manage Versions, Manage Caching, Purge, Location History.
All users can use all File operation options except "Edit Security" according to the user's permission. Only admins can use the "Edit Security" option.
Only admins can use File Management options. BA needs to allow/disallow GA to use File Managements options on MCM - Account - Edit GA Permissions page, please refer to Account.
