Accessing the Hyperion Workspace Explore folder

When it comes to browsing through the folders in Hyperion Workspace, we have the Explore folder and its access that we need to consider.
If by any chance a user is not provisioned correctly, errors of the following nature may pop up while trying to log in to Workspace. In this case, the user will not see "EXPLORE" in Workspace

"You do not have sufficient permission to login to your default folder or the folder no longer exists.  Please contact your administrator for assistance."

AND EVEN

Required application module cds.folderactions is not configured.
Object doesn't support property or method 'getSessionId'

This can be the cause of the user not being given proper access. It can be resolved by giving proper access to the ROOT folder.
Log in to Workspace as ADMIN
Click EXPLORE in the Menu bar.
Under Explore, right-click ROOT -> Edit Permission -> Choose who you want to give permission to and SAVE.
