User Group Permissions

You define user group properties on the

Create/Edit User Group

page.

You define permissions to determine the object categories that the users in the group can view or change. When you assign categories to

applications, to topics, and to connections

, only user groups with permissions to the categories can view or change the objects.

The associated topic, application, or connection, whichever is the most restrictive, determines user permissions to publications and to subscriptions. For example:

To create and to edit publications, users must have write permissions to both the associated application and the associated topic, and read permissions to the associated connection.

To create and to edit subscriptions, users must have write permissions to the associated application and read permissions to all of the associated topics and to the associated connection.

The

Permissions

tab includes the following properties:

User Group Name: Textual name for the user group.
Category permissions: Determines whether to grant the user group read and write permissions to all categories or to specific categories. You can choose from the following options:
Grant read and write permissions to all categories
Select specific categories to grant read permissions or both read and write permissions

If you select specific categories, users in the group can access only objects with the selected categories and objects with no category assignments.
