Roles and permissions

Roles

SECollab is pre-configured with the following roles:

Server Administrator: import LDAP users, setup path and user/password/keys to access tools.
Functional Administrator: create and manage projects (add users, import and update templates, manage reports).
Data Manager: publish data and manage configurations (streams and baselines).
User: read-only access to data, add comments if participating to a review.

Existing roles can be updated, and new ones can be added. Each role can be:

Defined as an Administrator role: forces the activation of server administration permissions.
Assigned as the default role for new project members.
Assigned a custom set of permissions, thanks to the Permissions administration page.

Each role can be assigned to users in 2 ways:

Role with at least one server administration permission: such a role is called a server-wide role. It can be assigned directly from the Users server administration page.
Role with no server-wide permission: this is a project role. It can be assigned in the Project members administration page.

Notes :

Several roles can be assigned to a user, whether they are server-wide or project roles. In this case the user benefits from the union of all permissions provided by the assigned roles.
Roles can be imported or exported, along with their associated permissions, from the Permissions administration page.
Some permissions depend on one or several other permissions to work as intended. In this case, the activation of such related permissions is forced.
