What granular permissions are available for the Project level Directory tool?
Background
In Procore, the term granular permissions refers to task-based privileges that can be granted to users with 'Read Only' or 'Standard' level permissions on certain tools through the users' assigned permissions templates. The table below shows the granular permissions that are available for the Project level Directory tool.
Answer
| Granular Permission Name | Granular Permission Description |

| Add from Company Directory (Assignable Permission Templates Only) |

Users with this granular permission can only assign 'Assignable Permission Templates' to other users based on their own permissions template settings.
