Setting Instance Level Permissions on an Asset
Use the following procedure to set instance-level permissions on an asset using CentraSite Business UI.
To assign permissions to an asset
1. In CentraSite Business UI, display the details page for the asset whose permissions you want to edit. If you need procedures for this step, see Viewing an Asset. 2. In the action bar for the asset, click Permissions . 3. In the Assign Permissions dialog box, select the users or groups to which you want to assign permissions.
4. Use the View, Modify and Full check boxes to assign specific permissions to each user and/or group in the User/Group Permissions list as follows:
Permission | Allows the selected user or group to... |
View | View the asset. |
Modify | View and edit the asset. |
Full | View, edit and delete the asset. This permission also allows the selected user or group to assign instance-level permissions to the asset. |
5. When you assign instance-level permissions on an asset, the related objects (for example, bindings, operations, interfaces etc.,) receive the same permissions that are assigned on the asset.
6. If you want to ensure that the asset's dependent assets (for example, a WSDL or schema) receive the same permissions, expand the Advanced Settings section and mark the checkbox Propagate permissions. If you do not mark this checkbox, the permissions of the dependent assets will not be modified.
In addition, you can ensure that the dependent assets of the same object type receive the same profile permissions. To do this, mark the checkbox
Propagate profile permissions. See
Propagation of Permissions below for more information concerning propagation of permissions and propagation of profile permissions.
7. If at any time, you wish to remove one or more users' or groups' permissions, click the Delete () icon next to the user or group name. 8. Click the Ok button to save the permission settings.
9. When you have finished making your changes, click the Save () icon.
