You can make content files public or private, as follows:

Public

Anyone can view a public content file if they have its URL.

Private

Only Connect Enterprise users with View, Manage, or Publish permissions can view private content. To do so, they must first log in with a Connect Enterprise user name and password.

If you publish or upload a file to a folder that has its permissions set to allow public viewing, the content file is also available for public viewing by default. Similarly, if the parent folder has a custom permissions profile that allows only certain groups to view or manage it, the content file by default has the same profile.

You can customize the permission settings of a content file or folder by using the following options:

Allow public viewing

Make the content file or folder available publicly, even if the parent folder permissions are not set to allow public viewing.

Set a custom permission profile for users and groups

Add users or groups to the profile and set the access for each to Denied, View, Publish, or Manage. User and group permissions that you set for the file or folder take precedence over the permissions that are set for the parent folder.

Reset to parent

Set the content file permissions back to the permissions of the parent folder.
