Platform administrators have to grant so-called access and write permissions for each service on the platform.
The type of permissions sometimes varies depending on the services. For
content services, "access-write" are rather important, for instance.
The p-admin has to provide users with "access-write" permissions for
content-services, otherwise they will not be able to 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.
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 aplies 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".
