# Folder Permissions

Within **Feature Experimentation & Rollouts (FE\&R)**, you may manage multiple folders corresponding to different products, scopes, teams, or business units.

To avoid configuration mistakes and maintain governance, you can assign **specific permissions to specific users or teams per folder**.

This ensures that each team only accesses and operates within its defined scope.

### Configuring folder permissions

To manage folder permissions:

1. Navigate to the desired **folder**
2. Open **Folder settings**
3. Access the **Permissions** section

From this panel, you can:

* Add a user or a team
* Modify their role
* Remove access
* Define their level of interaction within the folder

Changes apply immediately once saved.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Save your changes:** When modifying folder permissions, make sure to save before closing the panel.\
Unsaved changes will not be applied.
{% endhint %}

### Folder-Level roles

You can assign one of the following roles within a folder:

#### 1. Viewer

Viewers have read-only access.

They can:

* View campaigns
* Access reports

They cannot:

* Create campaigns
* Edit campaigns
* Launch or pause campaigns
* Manage folder permission

#### 2. User

Users can operate campaigns within the folder.

They can:

* Create campaigns
* Edit campaigns
* Launch and pause campaigns
* Archive campaigns

They cannot:

* Manage folder members
* Modify folder governance settings

#### 3. Admin

Admins have full operational and governance control within the folder.

They can:

* Create, edit, launch, pause, archive, and delete campaigns
* Manage folder members (add/remove users and teams)
* Modify folder-level permissions

{% hint style="info" %}
**Permission Priority**\
A user can receive permissions in two ways:

* Individually (direct assignment)
* Through a team

If a user has multiple roles within the same folder, the **highest permission level applies**.

**Example:**\
If a user is manually assigned as *Viewer* but belongs to a team assigned as *Admin*, they will have **Admin** permissions in that folder.
{% endhint %}

### Example use case

*As a member of a Product & Tech organization with multiple feature squads, I need to organize my workspace so that each team only accesses the folders within their scope.*

For example:

* Folder: Home Page
* Folder: Product Pages
* Folder: Checkout

Each squad is assigned only to its relevant folder.

Meanwhile, a Super Admin or Project Manager can still maintain global visibility and governance across all folders.

This completes the access control model:

* **Account Role** → defines global governance
* **Team** → groups FE\&R users
* **Folder Role** → defines operational permissions
* **Campaign** → execution layer
