7 months agoHi modelit! Thanks for sharing your suggestion on the forum.
Just a clarification; when saying you’d like your team members to not be able to make edits to specific subfolders in the team space, does this concern subfolders inside team folders/shared folders to which the members have edit access?
In other words, would you like the members to have view-only access to subfolders that are stored in folders that they can edit?
Let me know, and we'll go from there.

Hi Nancy
Yes this concerns subfolders inside team folders to which Team members have edit access.
Under the Folder structure I have show below I would like to Prevent Team Members edit access on SUB-FOLDER-1,2,3 but have edit access to SUB-FOLDER-4, they can then add their own sub-folders etc to SUB-FOLDER-4 ie SUB-FOLDER-5
DROPBOX / TEAM-FOLDER / SUB-FOLDER-1 / SUB-FOLDER-2 / SUB-FOLDER-3 / SUBFOLDER-4 / SUB-FOLDER-5 /
thanks
