Setting Default Permissions

Default permissions allow you to configure |RCM| so that when a new |repo|, user group, or user is created their permissions are already defined. To set default permissions you need administrator privileges. See the following sections for setting up your permissions system:

  • :ref:`user-default-ref`
  • :ref:`user-group-default-ref`
  • :ref:`repo-default-ref`
  • :ref:`repo-group-default-ref`

Setting User defaults

To set default user permissions, use the following steps.

  1. From the |RCM| interface, select :menuselection:`Admin --> Permissions`
  2. Select the :guilabel:`Global` tab from the left-hand menu. The permissions set on this screen apply to users and user-groups across the whole instance.
  3. Save your changes

Setting User Group defaults

To set default user group permissions, use the following steps.

  1. From the |RCM| interface, select :menuselection:`Admin --> User groups`
  2. Select :guilabel:`Permissions`, and configure the default user permissions. All users will get these permissions unless individually set.
  3. Select :guilabel:`Global permissions`, and if you wish to configure non-standard behaviour, uncheck the :guilabel:`inherit from default settings` box and configure the desired permissions
  4. Save your changes

  2. Select :guilabel:`Edit` beside the |repo| group you wish to configure
