How can I restrict access to Project files?
There are several different options to restrict a Company User's access to Project files.
- Limit permissions: ConstructionOnline allows you to customize permissions for each Company User within your Company Account. If you do not want a user to have access to files for a specific Project, or files in general, set their permissions for Files and Photos as "Cannot View".

- Special folder/album permissions: ConstructionOnline allows you to restrict a Company User's access to specific Project files, save the files within a folder or album, and add custom permissions to the folder/album. Folder/album permissions allow you to customize different levels of permissions for each folder/album and specific Company User, while still allowing the Company User general access to Files and Photos.
- Make the folder/album private: ConstructionOnline also allows you to restrict access to specific files for everyone except you. To do this, save the desired files within a folder or album and set the folder/album as "Private". This will hide the folder and its contents from everyone but its creator.
