# Configuration

# Select level:

1. Go to Settings > General Settings> Permission section.
2. Choose the level of Restrict Delete Attachment for all models by default or for models with “default” restriction level.

# Five levels:

- Default : Use global configuration
- Owner : Owner and admins only
- Custom : Certain groups or users per related model.
- Owner + Strict : Owner, admins and Certain groups or users per related model.
- None : all users can delete them

Only Owner and Custom + Strict need specific configuration on models.

# For Custom and Owner + Strict levels:

1. Go to Settings > Technical > Database Structure > Models.
2. Open a model for which attachment deletion should be restricted.
3. Select ‘Restrict Attachment Deletion’, and assign ‘Attachment Deletion Groups’ and/or ‘Attachment Deletion Users’ as necessary (if no assignment, no one can delete the attachments of this model).

For assigning ‘Attachment Deletion Groups’/’Attachment Deletion Users’ to the model, you can alternatively add the model in the ‘Attachment Deletion Models’ tab in the respective group/user form.
