Special security rights for owners
The creator or owner of an object is automatically granted a special set of permissions for that object. The creator or owner has full control of the object, including delete rights and rights to modify security.
Creator owner permissions are in addition to enterprise security and Teamspace inherited security. Use cases for creator owner security include the following:
- A user may create an object but then decide to delete it. The user's teamspace security role may not allow them to delete the object, but as the owner they have the permission to delete it.
- A user may create a content folder. Because of the special permission granted to the creator of the folder, that user can limit the users who can access the folder and its contents.
