You can easily control who can and cannot access folders and their data through Treasure Data's policies and permissions. Administrators need to configure folder permissions of a parent segment in Treasure Data V4Workbench.

How it Works

Folder Tree security includes -based permissions include two permission types:

• View permission.  Allows users to view the information and content of an entity in the folder (for example, segment, funnel, predictive scoring).
• Full Control permission. Allows users to read, create, update, and delete any entity in a folder. A user with Full Control permission for a parent folder can also create subfolders in the parent folder. The ability for individuals with Full Control permission to create subfolders is specific to Treasure Data (v5). In Treasure Data (v4), only   Only administrators can create folders in Audience Studio (Legacy).

Folder Tree security -based permissions characteristics:

• A security policy is applied at the folder level; permissions assigned to a user at the parent folder are inherited by the child folder recursively.

• Users can be assigned either View permission or Full-control permissions to a folder. That permission applies to every entity that’s included in a folder, regardless of entity type (for example, segment, journeyfunnel, predictive scoring, and so on).
• The policy-based database permissions policy is additive.

...

If a user has Full Controlpermission for a parent folder, the user automatically gets Full Control permission for all the child folders. However, If an administrator assigns view permissions for one of the child folders to the user with another policy, the user still has Full Control permission for the child folders.
