Introduction to SharePoint Access Management
Managing access to folders and documents in SharePoint is crucial for maintaining data security and privacy. This guide will walk you through the steps to restrict access to specific groups of individuals, even when the content is shared in a public channel on Microsoft Teams.
Creating a New Group in SharePoint
To restrict access to a folder or document, you first need to create a new group in SharePoint. Follow these steps: 1. Navigate to your SharePoint site. 2. Click on the gear icon located in the top right corner. 3. From the contextual menu, select 'Site permissions'. 4. In the new display, click on 'Create Group'. 5. Designate a name for the group and assign the desired permissions. 6. Click 'Create' at the bottom of the page to finalize the group setup.
Adding Members to the Group
Once the group is created, you can add members of your choice: - In the new window that appears, click on the 'New' button. - Enter the names of the individuals you wish to add to the group. - The group is now created and contains the selected members.
Assigning the Group to a Folder or Document
After creating the group, you can assign it to a specific folder or document: 1. Navigate back to SharePoint and locate the folder or document you want to manage. 2. Right-click on the folder or document to open the menu. 3. Click on 'Manage Access'. 4. You will see existing groups and their permissions linked to the folder. 5. Press the plus button and enter the name of the group you just created. 6. Assign the group access to the folder with the permissions you set earlier.
Removing Access from Other Groups
To ensure that only the members of your newly created group have access, you can remove access from other groups: - In the 'Manage Access' menu, identify the groups that currently have access. - Remove access for any groups that should not have access to the folder. - This ensures that the folder is now only accessible to the members of your chosen group, even if it is in a public channel in Microsoft Teams.
Conclusion
By following these steps, you can effectively manage access to your SharePoint folders and documents. Creating specific groups and assigning permissions allows for better control over who can view or edit your content, enhancing security and privacy within your organization.

Quelques cas d'usages :

Restricting Access to Sensitive Documents

In a corporate environment, a project manager can create a group in SharePoint to restrict access to sensitive project documents. By assigning only specific team members to this group, the project manager ensures that confidential information is only accessible to authorized personnel, enhancing data security.

Collaborating on Team Projects

A team leader can use SharePoint to create a group for a specific project, allowing team members to collaborate on documents while controlling who can edit or view the files. This setup improves collaboration efficiency and keeps project-related information organized.

Managing Access in a Public Channel

In a public channel on Microsoft Teams, a team can still manage access to certain folders in SharePoint. By creating a group with restricted permissions, the team can ensure that only selected members can access sensitive files, even if the channel is open to all team members.

Onboarding New Employees

During the onboarding process, HR can create a group in SharePoint for new hires, granting them access to essential documents and resources. This allows HR to control the information new employees can access while providing them with the necessary tools to get started.

Project Documentation Control

A project coordinator can set up a group in SharePoint to manage access to project documentation. By restricting access to only key stakeholders, the coordinator can ensure that sensitive project information is protected while still allowing collaboration among team members.
