Hi Team,  
I have two name space in my project and two root folders also in cms. I have given document type restrictions for each main folder according to the namespace. But when I am creating any inner child folders every time I need to give the restrictions for corresponding namespace doctypes or if i am giving doctype restrictions for main folders it will automatically work for inner folders also? Because I saw in my inner folders it is showing all the document types for the 2 name spaces. Shall I give the restrictions for all inner folders also every time when I am creating folders. Is there any way to restrict corresponding name space document types to be shown in corresponding root folders and sub folders in one restriction?

Thanks  
Girija

Hi Team,

Can you please try following this [documentation](https://xmdocumentation.bloomreach.com/library/concepts/document-types/control-the-allowed-document-types-in-a-folder.html) and see if that works?
