Overview Exporting the Permissions Report Export Limit

Overview

The Migrate Sharing Insights tab offers a breakdown of all permissions associated with your content (based on the source content). It provides an overall breakdown of how content is shared, as well as the top user and group contributors. You can quickly identify the most shared files and folders. You also have the option to export a full permissions report, which allows you to view the permissions assigned to each item in the transfer.

The value "Not Shared" represents both items that have no permissions as well as content shared by inheritance from the parent folder. Currently, DryvIQ only tracks permissions applied during transfer, not those resulting from inheritance within the hierarchy.

Exporting the Permissions Report

The full Permissions Report export provides the permissions assigned to each item at all levels of the hierarchy that were applied during transfer. The report includes only applied or equal permissions. The export does not include failed permissions, permissions that were skipped, or permissions that were removed. In addition to providing information for the permissions applied for a job, the export can be used as a tool to expedite the creation of new permission mappings. The Permissions Import feature accepts the format of the Sharing Insights Permissions export, allowing you to use the export to create new permission maps as needed. Export the report, edit permissions as needed, and import the CSV file as the permission mapping for the job you are creating.

The following features use permissions and will  generate the information for the report:

  • Basic transfer, Folder mapping, User account mapping, Network home drive mapping
  • Simulation Jobs
  • Transfer in one direction
  • Transfer in both directions (sync)
  • Jobs using Impersonation (Run as user).

Export Limit

To ensure performance, the permissions export is limited to one million rows. If your permissions report has more than one million results, you can use the REST API to pull the report using pagination to retrieve all the results, or you can export the report in chunks using the information on the Exporting Large Data Sets in Chunks page.
