@tprudentova for the access management waiting for me to improve the clarity, let me explain how it works:

• First we look if we are in the context of a public link, if currently checked element correspond to the public link we stop and return expected access level
• Then we look at direct access info, for instance current user is specifically indicated as "write" access then we use this information and we don't look anywhere else
• Then we take the maximum level available of this two:
  • Look up recursively and apply previous points to parent folders if 'inherit' is true and get the maximum level returned
  • If we are member of the company, get the defined access level as member of the company

For root and trash, we have special rules depending on if you are guest or not, and admin or not.

This being said, I think we must change the inherit folder and company part, something as simple as "if inherit is on, then company access cannot be restricted", it means the "company has access" will be shown only if inherit is set to off

I'm thinking about clarifying the fact that direct access on user is in priority to the company/inherit access, still thinking about it now.

Finally, you didn't tried it yet but when linking a folder to a chat tab then it works a bit like public sharing for the logic.

@RomaricMourgues okay, I think I got you, thank you!
Maybe (just a suggestion) we could sort the access options in the order of priority? Like, public link on top, them direct access, then inherit, then all members. I'm not sure whether it's a good way to solve this, but it seems more intuitive to consider things at the top of the list more important.
Also, I couldn't find a way to link a folder to a chat... Is this feature not on canary yet or am I just blind? :')

[RomaricMourgues]

To link a folder to a chat open a workspace channel then add a new tab at the top and select "Document" then you'll have it.

Ohhhh I see, thank you :)
