Permissions That Enable Access to Areas of the User Interface
Role-based permissions include a set of permissions that enable access to certain features and screen sets in the CentraSite Control user interface. These permissions determine which tabs a user sees in the navigation bar in CentraSite Control. For example, CentraSite will not display the navigation bar's Policies profile to a user unless the user has the Use the Policy UI permission. The UI-related permissions also include permissions that enable users to view certain logs and use certain controls in CentraSite Control.
Note: | The user interface permissions apply only to the CentraSite Control user interface. They do not affect access to features or screen sets in the CentraSite plug-in for Eclipse. |
By default, all
CentraSite users have implicit (and irrevocable) permission to use the Asset Catalog area of the
CentraSite Control user interface. To use the other parts of the user interface, a user must belong to a role that includes the appropriate user interface permission either explicitly (i.e., the role includes the permission itself) or implicitly (i.e., the role includes a permission that implicitly grants the UI permission). For more information about implicitly granted permissions, see
Implication of Additional Permissions.
