Permissions in Sinopia

michelleif edited this page Jan 26, 2022 · 6 revisions

Permissions in Sinopia are based on groups.

Actions permitted based on user's group and resource's group

The T and R in parentheses refer to Template and Resource.

User's status Preview (R) Copy (T/R) Edit existing (T/R)* Open, fill, save (T) Convert to MARC (R) Change "owned by" (T/R) Change "editable by" (T/R)
in resource's "Owned by" group Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes
in resource's "Editable by" group Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes No No
not in resource's "Owned by" or "Editable by" group, but in another group Yes Yes No Yes Yes No No
not in any group Yes No No No Yes No No

*"Edit existing": for resource templates, "edit existing" means change a template's configuration. For resources, "edit existing:" means open an existing resource, change or add data, and save.

The following actions do not depend on a resource's "owned by" or "editable by" group, and can be carried out by any user, as long as the user is in at least one group:

  • Create new template
  • Load RDF

The Export to Catalog action is permitted only if a user is in a group that has been given Export-to-Catalog permission by the Sinopia administrator. If the user's group has Export-to-Catalog permission, the user can Export-to-Catalog any resource, regardless of the resource's group.
