Scanning permissions

Learn about how Movebot scans permissions.

As part of a scan, permissions will be scanned from the source. You can then use the scan results to inspect the permissions on the source. Make sure check Enable File/Folder Permission Preservation during setup to use this feature.

To check the permissions on an individual file or folder, go to Discovery Scan within your project, highlight your target item, and click *Details, then Sharing.

Downloadable reports

Additionally to the reporting available in the front end, you can download two reports on file permissions:

Permissions Report

A CSV export of all permissions detected on the source by file and folder.

Applied Permissions Report

A CSV export of applied permissions
