Protecting Access to User Interfaces
To prevent unauthorized access to My webMethods, a user is authenticated with a user name and password.
Trading Networks actions that you access from My webMethods are protected by role-based access. That is, to view Trading Networks data (for example, information about a delivery task) and to perform actions against that data (for example, restart a task), you must be a member of a role to which that permission has been granted. There are two aspects to role-based access:
Data permissions, which identify a data set of partner profiles, document types, transactions, tasks, and activity log entries along with the actions a role can perform against that
Trading Networks data set. Using data-level security, you can grant roles the permissions to perform such actions as viewing, editing, or creating profiles.
General functional permissions, which grant a role the permission to perform
Trading Networks actions against other
Trading Networks data. Using general functional permissions, you can grant roles the permissions to perform such tasks as managing public queues or partner groups, or deleting partner profiles.
