Issue

-The REST API api/protocols/file-security/permissions is being invoked for setting the ACLs' permissions with parameter apply-to set to true for files, sub folders and this folder. This however, sets the permissions at sub folders and this folder level only and not the files underneath.
-The REST API response indicates permissions are only applied to sub folders and this folder level.
"apply_to":
{ "sub_folders": true, "this_folder": true }
-This causes issues for some of the target users.
