Assign Delegated Administration of Content Management Resources

As an administrator, you can delegate the administration of Content Management resources.

Delegated Administration roles are dynamic classifications of users that determine user access to resources in the WebLogic Administration Portal. These roles are used to determine whether to grant or deny access to resources, and to determine which capabilities on those resources are available to the administrator.

Note: If you are using a BEA repository with library services-enabled, the capabilities you give to a role determine how they participate in the content lifecycle. For example, if a role is not granted Publish capabilities they cannot transition content to the Published or Retired status.

Note: Before you can assign Content Management resources to a Delegated Administration role, you must make sure the role exists and has Delegated Administration rights assigned to it. If no role exists, you must create it, then you can add users and content resources to it. For detailed information about setting up administrators, see
