Prevent users from deleting files.

[RogerG]

I want to prevent a group from deleting files - they will still need to create/add as well as check in/out but I'm trying to stop them from deleting from the repository (don't care if they delete local copy).

I do know how to undelete but the (apparent) absence of the files is causing process flow problems in our lifecycle.

Can this be done (v 7.1 if that matters)?

Thanks for any suggestions.

P.S. - I'm a complete noob with Vault so I apologize if this is an easy question.

The "delete" right is tied to the "add" right. If you have been assigned right to add something, you also have the right to delete it. This way mistakes can be undone.

Thank you Jeff, I was hoping there was some trick to get around having add/delete tied together. Appreciate the response.

I have a feature request open regarding making the security rights more granular, which would separate out each major action and assign a security right to it. I will add your "vote" to this feature.
