# Subfolder Permissions

## post by BEYER_Architects_Eng on Jul 14

Having subfolder permission for a project/ company can be very valuable for our workflow. Certain contacts dont need viewership on some of the folders. Creating a separate file channel becomes an added step and an additional location to maintain, as opposed to keep everything in one location with permissions. Thank you.

Hi [@BEYER_Architects_Eng](https://community.assembly.com/u/beyer_architects_eng),

Thank you for the feedback and for explaining your use case!

I completely understand, having the ability to set permissions at the subfolder level within a company file channel would make it much easier to manage document access without needing to create and maintain multiple separate file channels. I’ll make sure to share this with our product team as a feature request!

If you ever have any other questions or feedback, please feel free to reach out. We’re always here to help!
