Permissions by Role in Capture Manager

Pages created via Capture Manager dynamically change permissions based on the role of the user and Visibility selected for the page.

This solution is custom-configured for each client by MindTouch Professional Services. Elements and labels may differ from what is documented.

Permissions and Roles for Capture Manager are designed to support KCS Methodology.

Permissions overview

  • Permissions should be applied at the Guide level so as pages are created within the Guide, permissions propagate down.
  • The Role of the user viewing the page and the Capture Manager Classification Visibility selected determine permissions for the page.
  • For example, KCS Customers should be added as a Viewer at the Guide level, but new pages are set to Visibility: Internal and Confidence: WIP. Only when a user with appropriate permissions changes the Visibility, will the Customer or Partner group be able to view the page.
  • KCS Viewer is an exception, as it is meant to be an internal role and will have view access regardless.

Group naming conventions

The syntax required for Group names is KCS [optional qualifier] [KCS License Type]. For example, KCS CandidateKCS ContributorKCS Publisher.

To permission different sections with similar License levels, Group names can include qualifiers as long as Group names begin with KCS and end with [KCS License Type]. For example, KCS Product-A CandidateKCS Product-B Candidate.
