Assigning Permissions

Assigning Permissions

When you assign permissions to a user or group, you can assign permissions to any user or group in the list. You can filter the list to show users, groups, or users and groups.
Use the following rules and guidelines when you assign permissions:
  • You can increase the level of permission for any user or group.
  • You cannot revoke default permissions from any user or group. For example, if default permissions are read and write, you cannot remove write permission from any user or group. To reduce the level of permissions, you must change permissions assigned to the default user group, “Others.”
When you change the permissions for a user that is connected to the repository, the permissions take effect the next time the user connects to the repository.
Assign permissions for a folder on the Permissions tab of the folder. Assign permissions for global objects in the global object.
To assign permissions:
  1. Select a user or group in the user list of the object.
  2. Select the permissions to assign to the user or group.
    If the user or group is not in the list, click Add to add the user or group to the list.
  3. Click OK.
