Security Settings

You can define and manage access permissions for a specific asset. By default, asset access is controlled by application-level permissions. After you define asset-specific permissions, the permissions defined at the application or portal level no longer apply.

To set security for an asset:

1. In the Security Settings dialog, select Use Custom Permissions to define who can access the selected asset and what level of access they have. When you select this option, the other controls in the dialog become available.
2. Specify the user or group to whom you want to grant access.

   • Click Add Users to search for and select individual users available in your identity store.

   • Click Add Groups to search for and select groups of users available in your identity store.

3. For each user or group selected, specify the level of access you want to grant. Select:

   • Manage to grant full access on the asset. Such users can perform tasks such as edit, delete, grant access, show or hide, and so on.

   • Update to grant the permission to edit the asset. Such users can edit the asset, but they cannot delete it.

4. If you want to revoke access from any user or group, select that entity and click Delete Access.
5. To revoke all custom permissions granted on the asset, select Use Portal Security Settings.
6. Click OK.
