Display document only to user who uploaded it in sharepoint


I have a specific requirement where-in I want only the uploader of the document and a specific team to be able to view it in list / library. 1) is it possible? 2) If yes, how...?


Solution

  • Ok. So I was able to resolve my issue with the steps mentioned below. Soon will be documenting it in form of a blog and share it:

    1. Created the document library and modified the default view to only show documents that were created by/modified by [Me].
    2. Added a new web page to the library and gave exclusive rights to access that to a certain set of users.
    3. Restricted all users from creating a view with the help of creating special permission level where user only had access to upload or delete a document but not creating/updating/deleting lists/views. Also disabled private view creation.

    Hope this may be helpful to others too who are looking for restricted views / disabling view creation.
