# permissions

Set permissions on a user or group basis. This is especially useful for access permissions on files and
folders as part of the [Digital assets management (FAL)](https://docs.typo3.org/m/typo3/reference-coreapi/main/en-us/ApiOverview/Fal/Index.html#fal) of the core.

Read more about FAL access permissions in the [permission chapter](https://docs.typo3.org/m/typo3/reference-coreapi/main/en-us/ApiOverview/Fal/Administration/Permissions.html#fal-administration-permissions-user)
of the core API document, but find some examples below:

**EXT:site_package/Configuration/user.tsconfig**

```typoscript
# Allow to create and upload files on all storages
permissions.file.default.addFile = 1

# Allow to add new folders if user has write permissions on parent folder
permissions.file.default.addFolder = 1

# Allow to edit contents of files on FAL storage with uid 1
permissions.file.storage.1.writeFile = 1
```
