Google Drive Level Permission.

[kuszmania9999]

Hi all!

I was hoping that you could help us with an internet cloud issue. Some of our company's documents are on Google drive, for the sake of easy collaboration. We intend to work with some part-timers, and we would like the part-timers to have access to certain files on the drive, but not all of the files.

We were wondering if there was a way we could set the permission at different levels. For example: Those with level 1 permission can only view basic work documents. Those with level 2 permission can view the previously mentioned documents and advanced work documents.. Those with level 3 permission can view the previously mentioned documents and the admin folder. Those with level 4 permission can view all folders and docs. This is just an example, it doesn't have to be 4.

Basically, we want to know if there is a ways to restricts access for documents on Google drive, without having to go through the documents and changing the permissions for each Google doc one by one.


If google drive can't do this, are there any other method or software?

Thank you,
Jeff

I was involved with a similar situation where a freelance employee needed access to some files, but not everything. What we ended up doing is creating another Google Drive account and placing the files that they needed access to into that alternate cloud space. Then there was isolation as to what they could access and the files that they have no right viewing etc.
