We are using SP2013 on-premise. On a site collection there is a document library. There are several users with "Manage Permission" permission. Based on their need, they will change the permission on individual documents (permission inheritance is broken).

However, when they try to share the document to other users, the default permission level choice is always "Edit". Can we change the default choice to be "Contribute". (Screenshot for reference only, could get with EDIT access)

Reset to default

If you have enough rights in the library, I think you already have in this situation, you could invite/add user directly in classic interface of library for changing permissions. Click Share with => Choose Advanced => Add someone in the library with contribute rights.

When user click Share , in pop up you will find two options in dropdown 1. Can Edit --> This will add user as Contribute level access 2. Can View --> This will add user as Read level access

  • We are going through Advanced option, as permissions are being given at the Folder level Above suggestion works at document level.
