Managing Users rights, Teams and Permissions

Introduction

Icareus Suite users include admin users who can access the Icareus Suite admin view. Apart from admin users, there may be subscribers and other end-users such as event participants or viewers who do not have access to the Icareus system.

This document outlines how users and teams are created and managed on Icareus Suite.

Users

An user account is needed to access the Icareus Suite admin panel.
Users are created, managed and deleted in Settings --> Users. You can read more about Managing Users here.

A user can have one of the following roles that define their access to Icareus Suite features.
The available roles are:
  1. Admin
  2. User
  3. Account Viewer

Admin Role

The Admin role is the highest role and the only role that can add other users to the Suite account.
It has also visibility to all other functionalities and other users' assets.

User Role

The User role is the standard and generally most used role.  With this role one can access their own content within the system, but do not have configuration rights for the account.

Account Viewer Role

The Viewer role is the most limited role, as they have only viewing rights to the content within the account that they have been granted access to.

Teams

Teams are used to gather users into groups and grant permissions more easily to larger groups for accessing content within the account.
Teams are managed under Settings --> Teams.



A team can be created using the 'Add New Team' button. Once the team name is given, users can be added or removed from the team. You can add users to the team by checking the boxes next to their names&roles in the "Available Users" column and then clicking the left arrow button in the middle. Reversely, you can remove users from the team by checking their box and clicking the right arrow button.



When a user is part of a team and that team is given permission to access certain content within the account, the user will have the same rights to that content based on their role (Administrator, User, Viewer).

Permissions

The permission scheme of users and teams is support for assets and their visibility.
There are two permission levels:
  1. All permissions
  2. View permissions
With "All permissions" the user can edit and manage all aspects of the asset.
With "View permission" the user can only view the asset and its metadata, but not change anything.

An admin has full access to all assets within the account.
A user has full access to their own assets and to the assets they are granted access to personally or through a Team.
An account viewer has viewing rights to the assets they are granted access to personally or through a Team.
