vFileSystemChmod

Change a file/folder's access permissions The "File" textfield is used to specify a file or folder path. The "Mode" control is used to specify the file mode (access permission) as an integer number. This is typically an octal value like "777", "755", etc. The "Recursive" checkbox allows you to apply the access permission changes to items inside a folder. Note: This node works on macOS and Linux systems only due to the use of the UNIX "chmod" utility.
