11/17/2010 6:46:44 AM Jason H Posts: 4	Hi We want to give our users the ability to create new folders within a shared root folder, but not the ability to delete...I can't see any way of doing this as the folder permission seems to be an all or none. When a user creates a new password, it has to go into the folder named for the client the password is for, if one was not existing already, the user should be able to create it. Can anyone advise? Thanks J

In the next minor release of Secret Server, there will be Event Engine which will, among other things, have the ability to email a user on Folder creation and/or deletion. Just note that this minor release update will be available for Secret Server users with up-to-date support licenses.

At present, we have a few major feature additions in our immediate future, so the development team is rather busy these days. Also, deleting a folder does not delete the Secrets inside of it. They are simply removed from the folder. They would show up on a search with no folder specified. Scott Thycotic Software
