Creating/Editing a Role

...

The permissions list contains every single permission in Continua grouped by category. The All permissions selected here are the ones you want the role to have access to.Take note that each category also has a check box which selects all the child permissionsthat are selected will be applied to the selected role. If a permission is grayed out, then this permission is being included from another permission. For example, if you select Projects then it will auto-select Create Project, Delete Project, Update Project and View Project. However, selecting Projects is an alias for Projects.*, so if a new permission was added, say Backup Project, then the role you've created will have permission for it. If, on the other hand you didn't select Projects and instead explicitly selected the Create/Delete/Update/View Project permissions then the role would not have permission to Backup Project.

Editing a Role

Clicking the "Edit" link at the end of each row will pop up a dialog with all the input fields needed to edit the selected role. 

 

Clicking the "Delete" link at the end of each row will pop up a confirmation prompt. Click 'Yes' to delete the role. 

edit configuration is selected then view configuration will also be selected as view is required to edit.

If a checkbox in the category header is selected then it will automatically check every permission in that category.

Once a role has been created it can then be linked to users and groups in the Access Control section

Deleting Roles

When a role is deleted, all associated permissions are deleted with it. This means that deleting a role will strip it's permissions from any users associated to that role.
