Platform administrators have to grant permissions for each
content-service on the platform, otherwise users will not be able to
access service lists and/or publish content on the platform.
Moreover, so-called "standard" permissions can be
defined. Standard permissions are used as a kind of recommendation
during the publishing process. These recommendations are displayed in
form of a pre-selection offered to users when it comes to assigning
permissions during the publishing process.
Standard permissions have recently become less significant.
If a fact is created in a folder, the permissions of the respective
folder are automatically recommended during the publishing process.
Standard permissions only apply if facts are published in the
respective content-service.
In order to assign service permissions, proceed as follows:
|1| Choose "Services" from the main menu by clicking on it.
|2| Now, you see a list of all services which are available
on your platform. Choose a service by clicking on the "perm."-button
next to it.
|3| On the next page, all available user groups are displayed in
rows. In the columns you see the permission settings. "read" stands for
view, "write" for create and "modify" for edit.
You need to assign "access" and "standard" permissions for each service by clicking in the respective checkboxes.
read/write permissions (access):
|
"access + read" |
Defines whether a group has access to a service via the header. [Only applies to platforms with standard header.] |
"access + write" |
Defines whether a group is allowed to create facts of this specific service. |
recommendation for permissions for all facts of the service (standard):
|
"standard + read" |
As p-admin, you suggest that users of this group should be provided with read-permissions. |
"standard + modify" |
As p-admin, you suggest that users of this group should be provided with modify-permissions. |
|4| Click on the "set permissions-button, to save your selection
Example: For better understanding, read through the following example for the service "image".
