Path permissions are used to give a user account group or a user account access to the objects defined in the path. The permissions configured on a path apply to all path sub-levels unless you configure new permissions for the path sub-level.
Path permissions grant a specific set of permissions to a user account or a user account group to all the folders, sub-folders and objects contained in these folders (such as alarms, values or graphics) of a certain folder structure in the EcoStruxure Building Operations software.
The permissions defined on a path apply to all its sub-paths unless you configure new permission for a sub-path. Path permissions provided at the top level of the system are symbolized “/”. Path permissions provided to sub-levels of the system are symbolized “/[sub-level name]. Parent server is not included in the path, for instance “/Enterprise server” will only grant access to that specific server and not sub-servers.
A user account or a user account group can be granted the following path permissions: Read, Write, Create, Delete, Edit, Force and Command.

Relative path permissions for a folder structure grant a specific set of permissions to a user account group or to a user account to all the folders accessible in a predefined path and its folder structure. Relative path permissions enable a user accounts group or a user account to reuse a specific path permission.
