How to filter assets with scopes
In some cases it is useful or needed to filter assets for one or more users.
For example, when a user is only allowed to see PDF files in a specific File store. In that case, you need to create a scope containing a (regular expression) filter and assign the scope to that user.
Here you can find some examples on how to filter assets by using scopes:
| Scope | (Regular Expression) Filter | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Single Filestore - All Folders - All Subfolders - All Files | ^FILESTORENAME | ^PP_FILE_STORE |
| Single Filestore - All Folders - All Subfolders - only .ext Files | ^FILESTORENAME/.*.ext | ^PP_FILE_STORE/.*.pdf |
| Multiple Filestores - All Folders - All Subfolders - All Files / only .ext Files | ^(FILESTORENAME_1|FILESTORENAME_2|FILESTORENAME_3|...)
