Which default create drop-down menu are you referring to? Can you be more specific

    In the Assets section, when creating an asset you can see all of these options in the drop down. We would like to remove them so that only 'Folder' and 'File' remain.

      Its not recommended to remove those options at these OOTB functionality will help you in achieving other goals as name suggest in the drop down list but if you still wants to overwrite it you can do it by overriding /libs/dam/gui/content/assets/jcr:content/actions/secondary/create/items node inside you app folder

        Hello @mbrennan 

         

        You can use granite:rendercondition to hide the options for a specific group. Please don't hide for all.

        Example: 

        /libs/dam/gui/content/assets/jcr:content/actions/secondary/create/items/folderupload/granite:rendercondition

         

        @dprakashraj  has already shared the location of Create dropdown

          Hello @aanchal-sikka thank you so much, this is a great direction.

           

          I have defined a group which contains all the users I do not want to be able to see

          /libs/dam/gui/content/assets/jcr:content/actions/secondary/create/items/createfragment/granite:rendercondition

           

          However this is all I see

          I previously had an ACL access policy in that window which was all which I deleted, and now I can't get it back.

            I tried reverting the node but that did not work.
