Manage Access Requests and Grants

In addition to managing policy-based access control (see Modify Permissions for Folders and Files), PodBrowser can manage access requests and grants.

With access requests, you receive access requests (in the form of a Verifiable Credential) to your Folders and Files. PodBrowser supports both approving and denying the access request. If you approve the access request, PodBrowser also supports later revoking access grants.
