These recipes map to the Folder Access UI in the Admin Panel. Use them as starting points and adjust per folder.
Notes
- Manage (Owner) grants full access for that folder.
- Write is a shortcut that toggles the file actions (Create File, Upload, Edit, Rename, Copy, Delete, Extract).
- View (own) limits listings to files the user uploaded.
- Account flags (Read-only, Disable upload, Folder-only) still apply even if ACLs allow an action.
