Issue with Inherited Permissions in Document Management System

There was an error rendering this rich post.

Hello,

I am currently working on our Document Management System, and I have implemented several web service calls (using C#), such as documentManagement.ListNodes, to retrieve the nodes in a folder and set up the appropriate permission rights. These operations are functioning as expected.

However, I have encountered an issue: the files within the folder do not inherit the same permission rights from the parent folder. Could you please advise on how to resolve this and ensure that the child files inherit the permissions set at the folder level?

Thank you for your assistance.

Best regards,

Felipe

Inheritance can be overridden by certain modules for e.g if you have Records Management then its settings can ooverride the default inheritance model
