ℹ️This feature is only accessible to Admins.
Temp save or allow saving is a Security control which can be applied to a Team or Sub-team’s PDF and Microsoft Office files. It allows Admins to control whether people can save files.
When files with Save security controls are downloaded, they ping the Rights Management Server to verify access rights.
It's called temp save because the files are only accessible temporarily, will become inaccessible when one of the following conditions are met, whichever comes first:
access to the file is denied and revoked
the Save security control is disallowed
the person is disabled from the Room
the Room is disabled
When either of those occur, the person will receive a notification indicating that the file has expired.
⚠️Good to know: Given that Microsoft Office files are typically ‘working files’ that are designed to allow for further editing and modification, this feature can have practical implications for your deal that should be considered before choosing to apply them. Learn more about Secure Office requirements here.
