Assign Service permissions
 

For each service on your platform the platform administrator(s) must specify the access permissions ("access-read"). Depending on the different services, additional permissions need to be considered. In the content services for example the “access-write” permission is very important!


The p-Admin has to assign “access-write” permissions to user groups, otherwise users will not be able to create content. In addition the “standard” permissions need to be considered. They serve as a suggestion during the publishing process.

In order to assign Service permissions, proceed as follows:

|1| Choose "Services" from the main menu by clicking on it.

|2| In the following list of services, click on the “perm” button of the desired service.

|3| In the table on the next page, all your groups are displayed as rows, and the columns represent the possible permission settings. For each service, you have to set "access" and "standard" permissions. The following checkboxes are available:

"access + read" Defines whether a group has access to a service from the header. [Only important for platforms with a standard header.]
"access + write" Defines whether a group is allowed to create facts of this specific service.
"standard + read" As pAdmin you suggest to users this group to be "read" permitted for a fact of this service.
"standard + modify" As pAdmin you suggest to users this group to be "modify" permitted for a fact of this service.
