Under the Permissions section is a list of allowed actions that are applied to the selected role:

  • Access: Permission to login into the application.
  • Administrate: Permission to access the toolbar and system configuration features.
  • Create pages: Ability to create new project pages.
  • Edit: Permission to change the workspace properties.
  • Clear: Ability to delete the workspace.
  • Edit permissions: Ability to grant/deny permissions.
  • Change allowed panels: Permission to restrict the type of panels that can be used in this workspace.

To assign a permission, you must select the target role and the list of actions allowed over the selected resource:

  • Target roles (who): What user will be granted/denied with the permissions defined.
  • Allowed actions: Depending on the type of the resource we can enable/disable what the user can do on this resource.
  • Reverse (optional): When we have a set of roles and we want to grant/deny a permission to all the roles but one.
Note

By default, the full set of permissions go to the role admin. This makes it easy to create a user that can do everything as long as the role admin is assigned.
