Teams - Restrict a folder/document to certain members of your team Video
In this video, you will learn how to restrict access to a folder or document in Microsoft Teams to specific members of your team.
The video covers the steps to create a new group and assign permissions to it.
By removing access for other groups, you can ensure that only the selected members have access to the folder or document, even if it is shared in a public channel.
This tutorial will help you control access to your files and ensure that only the right people can view and edit them.

Here, you can set up a new group by designating an owner and assigning the desired permissions. 6. **Create the Group**: Once you have configured the group, click 'Create' at the bottom of the page. 7. **Add Members to the Group**: In the new window, use the 'New' button to add the individuals you want in this group. -
Assigning Permissions to a Folder or Document
After creating your group, you can assign permissions to a specific folder or document: 1. **Locate the Folder or Document**: Return to SharePoint and hover over the folder or document you wish to manage. 2. **Manage Access**: A menu will appear; click on it and select 'Manage access'. 3. **Access Pane**: A pane will open on the right side of your screen, displaying existing groups and their permissions related to the file. 4. **Add Your New Group**: Click the button to add a group and enter the name of the group you just created. 5. **Set Permissions**: Your new group will now have access to the file with the permissions you assigned. To ensure exclusivity, remove access for other groups. -
