W or X Drive Folder Access

Overview

This service is used to request access changes for W: Drive folders that have not yet moved to SharePoint, as well as X: Drive (Netscan) folders. Folder owners can request that users be added to or removed from folders they manage.

Most departments now use SharePoint for file sharing, where folder owners can manage access directly.

Who Can Request This Service

Department or school folder owners may submit a request to add or remove user access to folders they manage.
