Who can copy documents in Secured Folders?

You can copy documents if you are:

  • allowed to create documents in the document class
  • a reader or contributor on the document
  • a contributor on the parent folder if the permissions are inherited from folders
  • a contributor on the document class permissions

As a reader, you can't copy a document if a library administrator has prevented viewers from downloading, copying and printing the document.

What happens during the copy?

When you copy an AODocs document to the current folder, its properties, attached file, relations, description and permissions are also copied. Only the last version of the document is copied, with its version name and description. The workflow state is re-set to the initial state.

When you copy an document to My Drive, the attached file is copied. Its properties, relations, description, permissions and workflow are removed.
