Filespace permissions can be created in bulk via our command-line interface. You will require Admin (or root) user credentials, along with a ';' delimited text file in the format example provided. 

Please note, as of Filespace format 2.2 the legacy term “Shares” has been changed to “Permissions.” This script will automatically detect Filespace format.
