Disable Online Web Editing

You can decide not to allow your users to edit documents in a browser. 

After an administrator configures online editing, FileCloud users can login to the User Portal, select any supported document and click a Web Edit button to edit the document from within the web browser. All the changes made by the user gets saved in FileCloud automatically.

If an administrator does not want to support this feature, the Web Edit button can now be removed from the User Portal for:

• a single user - in the user's policy
• a group of users - in the group's policy
• all users - in the Global Default Policy
