Configuring the Default Roles that CentraSite Assigns to Users in an Organization
By default, CentraSite assigns the Asset Provider and Asset Consumer roles to an organization's Users group. Consequently, every user that you add to an organization receives these roles.
If you do not want users in your organization to receive these roles automatically, or if you want to customize the set of permissions that users receive by default, you can do any of the following:
*Remove the Asset Provider and/or Asset Consumer roles from the organization's Users group.
*Modify the set of permissions associated with the Asset Provider and/or Asset Consumer roles that are assigned to the Users group.
*Create custom roles and assign them to the organization's Users group (instead of, or in addition to, the Asset Provider and/or Asset Consumer roles).
For example, if you want to create an organization whose users can only consume assets, you would remove the Asset Provider role from that organization's Users group. Doing this ensures that users added to the organization only receive permission to view assets. (An administrator could, of course, selectively give specific users in the organization permission to publish assets as necessary.)
