I have a client who still uses SP 2007. They have a requirement to allow users to edit existing documents but not add new documents to a library.
Is there a way to achieve this ?
thank you.
You should be able to set up a new custom permission level and assign it to a group or people who need this level of access to the library
Creating a custom permission level
Replicate the current permission level but do not tick the Add item to the custom permission.
Warning : Do not update the out of the box permission level

We just created a rather complex power app which will be used by numerous users (in the company). Although there will be a small team who will handle over viewing the inputs from these users.
The goal is to restrict the users to go into the sharepoint site and delete or edit any records which them or others created. We cannot use any other datasource only sp lists.
I tried creating permissions for specific groups but they don't seem to be working properly.
thank you for your help in advance
Take a look at item level permission on SharePoint, I believe this is what you need
In addition Take a look here as well.
Follow below process:
Create two groups in SharePoint site - Admins and Normal users
On item creation in SharePoint list, run a Power automate flow which will grant Full control access to Admins and only Read permissions to normal users (or just the user who created list item - as per your requirements).
Follow below article for setting permissions for individual list items using power automate: Set Item Level Permission in SharePoint List using Power Automate
In NetSuite, I wanna confirm if there exists any method that I can set Custom Segments to roles Access Restriction, if not, any else method I can restrict role's data access by a customized column other than [department, class, location].
Any tips would help, Thank you in advance.
To allow or restrcit access to a Custom Segment, set the values on the "Permissions" tab. Refer to Suite Answer Id 43334, step 14, the part on Permissions.
Can i program custom base permission level? There are many available in SPBasePermissions like
UseRemoteAPIs Use SOAP, WebDAV, or Microsoft Office SharePoint Designer 2007 interfaces to access the Web site.
ViewFormPages View forms, views, and application pages, and enumerate lists.
ViewListItems View items in lists, documents in document libraries, and view Web discussion comments.
However i want to make a custom one, something like:
EditItemsAssignedToMe + ViewItemsAssignedToMe + view/edit items i created.
Still finding my way out to allow users view and edit items created by them or assigned to them.
OOTB you don't have the fine-grained control and can only assign a certain set of permissions as defined on technet and this blog article.
However programmatically you can create a new SPRoleDefinition and assign it the appropriate permissions based on the SPBasePermissions enumeration as per this blog article. You might also want to read this short guide on the basics of SPBasePermissions.
If you want to go even further though and emulate the OOTB behaviour with your own custom permission set try Implementing Custom Security Rights in SharePoint.
How can I set the permissions for a site where I have access to do everything but NOT view documents?
Thank you.
I'm Kevin and I'm responsible for permissions in SharePoint
In SharePoint, you can grant permissions to a user or group via what we call "permission levels" - essentially sets of permissions. Out of the box we include a few of these like "Read" and "Contribute" and "Design".
It sounds like you want to provide some users with the ability to do more than the Read permission level allows, but disallow the viewing of documents. To accomplish this, you could create a new permission level (site settings > advanced permissions > permission levels). Note: we restrict permission levels from including adding or editing items without the ability to view them

Your question is slightly confusing, I'm taking it to mean, you want to stop certain users (or groups of users from accessing documents hosted in your site. (Where you are the site administrator.)).
To do that go into each library, go to settings, then document library settings, permissions for this document library and restrict them as appropriate.
I am using WSS2.0. Am trying to set some permissions to a document library but not getting the desired behavior. I have created a sharepoint user and assigned it to 'Reader' group. I just want this user to view document library content but not make any changes like check out or upload new document or delete etc. Hence I assign the Reader group. But when I login to the site as this user I am able to delete documents and perform other changes. I checked the document library permissions and it contains Reader, Contributor, Administrator groups and also the permissions are not inherited from the parent.
Is there any other settings I need to check. Have I missed or misunderstood anything?
Please advise.
Thanks,
Jagannath
Based on the details provided it seems likely that the user in question also belongs to another group (local, Active Directory or SharePoint) with the additional permissions.
