    <p>By default, all of the team members on a project have read and write
    access permissions for all project assets.</p>
    <p>The available permissions are read, write and execute. If you
    remove all individual or group permissions for a project asset,
    team members will not be able to access that asset.</p>
    <p>To change a project&#8217;s permissions:</p>
    <ol class="arabic">
    <li><p class="first">Open the project&#8217;s home page.</p>
    </li>
    <li><p class="first">Click the Workbench icon.</p>
    </li>
    <li><p class="first">In the Workbench app, right-click the file or folder you want
    to limit access to.</p>
    </li>
    <li><p class="first">In the menu that displays, select Permissions:</p>

    <p>NOTE: You can add a team member and set their access at the
    same time by typing their name in a username box, setting
    their permissions, and then clicking the Add button.</p>
    </li>
    <li><p class="first">Click the Submit button.</p>
    <p>The selected permissions are added, and the deselected
    permissions are removed.</p>

    give them access, they must refresh their browser window to see
    their current permissions.</p>

    <p>You can choose to grant file or folder access to someone who is
    not part of the project team, as long as that person has an AEN
    account.</p>
    <p>Sharing with individuals outside the team is a four step process:</p>
    <ol class="arabic simple">
    <li><a class="reference internal" href="#copy-to-home-dir-nt"><span class="std std-ref">Copy or move the file or folder to your home directory</span></a>.</li>

    <p>Your home directory is displayed at the bottom of the File Manager pane in the Workbench.</p>
    <p>To protect the other files and folders in your home
    directory&#8212;those you are not providing permissions to a user to
    access&#8212;we recommended that you:</p>
    <ol class="arabic simple">
    <li>Create a sub-folder.</li>
    <li>Rename the folder with the name of the user you are granting access to.</li>
    <li>Copy or move the file you want to grant permissions for to the renamed folder.</li>
    </ol>
    <p>The file is copied or moved to the new location and is ready for you to
    update the file permissions.</p>

    <span id="grant-access-nt"></span><h3>Granting file access<a class="headerlink" href="#granting-file-access" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3>
    <p>You must select read and execute access for a user to be able to
    view, but not edit, the files or folders.</p>
    <ol class="arabic simple">
    <li>Right-click the name of the file or folder you are granting access to.</li>

    <li>Click the Add button.</li>
    <li>Type the username of the user to whom you are granting file access and press Enter.</li>
    </ol>
    <p>TIP: If you grant access to a folder instead of a specific file, you only have
    to set permissions the first time you share the folder with each user, unless
    you need to update the permissions.</p>

    <a class="reference internal" href="#workbench-access-control"><span class="std std-ref">add the correct permissions</span></a>
    for the user, in the same way as you would for a team member.</p>
    <p>Once complete, depending on the access granted, the user will be
    able to view, read, change, and execute the file.</p>
    <p>NOTE: If you change permissions for a folder instead of a file,
    the user will be able to see and access any files within that
