Remove direct permissions in bulk (web client)
Background / Value
Direct permissions should be avoided and replaced by group permissions. Firstly, direct access rights are inefficient because every user is managed independently. Secondly, with native tools every directory needs to be examined individually to ensure the removal of all direct permissions. Access Rights Manager shows you all direct access rights on your file server(s). You can remove them in bulk using the web client.
