[Autogenerated] hi. In this lesson, we're
going to create a custom permission level.
We're here in SharePoint and we're on our
wellness site. It is a public group
connected site, but creating permission
levels is the same for all sites and
SharePoint. So this is gonna be the same.
No matter what site you're working with,
we're gonna go to our site permissions
click on advanced site permissions, and it
brings us here to our permissions page.
We're gonna go up to the ribbon to the
manage section, click on permission
levels, and we see our five default
permission levels. Now, the new permission
level that I want to create is going to be
based on the contribute permission. Let's
go ahead and take a look at that. The
contribute permission bothers me. There's
two things in here that I don't like the
delete items and delete versions. I would
rather not give people with this
permission level the option to delete
versions and elite items. Now you might be
thinking, Well, just uncheck that and save
IT. Well, that's not a good thing to do,
because if I actually saved this, if I
made those changes and saved this
permission level. It would change the
permissions on every item in this site in
this site collection that's using the
contribute permission. Not a good idea. So
we're going to cancel that. What you want
to do instead is create a new permission
based on the permission that you want. So
I'm gonna click on, contribute again, and
I'm going to come down to the bottom and
choose copy permission level. I'm going to
click that and see this. IT now has copied
the contribute permission. It's made a
copy of this. It's giving me the option to
give it a new name. So I am going to call
this one Limited contribute. And I will
add a description that is similar, but not
the same. I previously copied the
description from the contribute permission
level. But what I'm going to do is take
out the word delete. So now it's convey
you add update, list, items and documents.
Then I'm going to come down and unchecked
my two items delete items and delete
versions. Now I will create, and there is
my new permission limited, contribute and
my new description of IT. So now I have my
limited contribute permission and you see
the description that I wrote and I could
go ahead now and add this to a permission
group and add people to IT as I see fit.
And now you know how to create a custom
permission level in SharePoint. That's it
for this lesson. Thanks for listening, and I'll see you next time.
