# View Only Folders And Files

<code class="expression">space.vars.PRODUCT\_NAME</code> checks users' SharePoint Online permissions in mapped network drives when file and folder operations are performed. If the operation is not permitted by SharePoint Online, an access denied error will result. This alerts the user that they do not have permissions to perform that operation.

This is a useful scenario where users are to have access to documents such as templates or reference material, but they should not be permitted to modify the documents.

Operations such as creating new files and folders will be blocked with an access denied error.
