Symptom
- Folder access change when exporting/importing folder using Content Network in SAC.
- Extra teams are added when importing folder in comparison to source tenant using Content Network.
Environment
SAP Analytics Cloud
Reproducing the Issue
- Login to Source SAC.
- Export the folder along with the teams the folder is shared.
- Login to Target SAC.
- Import the package along with the team settings.
Notice: The folder is shared with the extra teams in target tenant.
Cause
This is a by design behavior of the product.
The workflow operates when importing a folder:
- Parent folder is imported first.
- Permissions to the Parent folder are assigned.
- Sub-folder is imported next.
- It inherits the Permissions from Parent by "default".
- Whatever additional permissions are there for sub-folder they are appended to the inherited permissions from parents.
Resolution
The Sub-folder inherits the Permissions from the Parent folder by default.
If you wish to exclude certain entities, you will need to manually remove the assigned teams for the Sub-folders.
