Permissions change on existing objects

Hello,

I have an object who is connected to an external database. I changed the permissions to give read permissions for external users on all the content.

But, when i check on the M-Files client, i can see that the permissions aren't apply for the external user.

But, if new object are created, the correct permissions are apply.
I can delete all the objects and reupdate all but i guess there is another possibility.

Then, did you know how to update permissions on existing objects ?

Best regards

PS : Sorry for my english :-)

Hi there, The external database have two different kind of update sequences. I think this is the same thing than what is described in the user guide: https://www.m-files.com/user-guide/latest…

If the permissions are applied via the Object Type properties 'Default permissions for new objects' then those do only apply to new objects. For the existing objects you would have to go back and manually update them to match the new permissions.
