If a user has different permissions on sites, subsite, lists, even on items within a SharePoint site collection, is there any easy and quick way to check this user’s permissions for all these contents?
BoostSolutions’ Permission Manager enables you to search a specific user’s permissions at site, list, folder or item levels. You can also export search results as an excel file for reporting and managing user permissions directly based on search results.
In this article, we will demonstrate how to check specific user’s permission for all sites, lists and items.
