Manage User Groups
Groups are used to grant permissions to users for specific actions in MashZone NextGen. If you are using the default MashZone NextGen User Repository, MashZone NextGen administrators add and manage user groups in the Admin Console. If you have configured MashZone NextGen to use your LDAP Directory as the User Repository, you define and manage user groups in your LDAP Directory.
User groups contain of a set of users. Groups also have one or more permissions assigned.
Built-in MashZone NextGen groups have a set of permissions predefined that allow users to work in the MashZone NextGen Hub and the AppDepot with one exception: the permission to run mashable information sources, mashups and apps is assigned by user-defined groups. See Built-In MashZone NextGen User Groups and Permissions for details.
Note: MashZone NextGen administrators and artifact owners automatically have permission to run all artifacts or the artifacts they own respectively.
User-defined groups are groups that administrators add to MashZone NextGen. These groups are used to grant run permissions to group members for the specific artifacts that the group has been added to. MashZone NextGen administrators can also automatically grant run permissions to groups to run all apps, all mashups, all mashables or any combination. See Automatically Grant Run Permissions to Users and Groups for information.
