Set resource permissions
Assign and control access for different types of resources.
The Resource Permissions portlet allows you to:
- Control whether or not a resource propagates or inherits its role assignments through the resource hierarchy
- Assign roles explicitly to specific users and groups
- Place resources under the control of an external security manager or bring externalized resources back under the control of WebSphere Portal
- Create or delete roles on externalized resources
- View inherited role assignments for specific users and groups
See the Resource Permissions portlet help for detailed instructions on setting resource permissions.
Access the Resource Permissions portlet from the Welcome page by clicking Administration > Access > Resource Permissions. From there you select the resource type you want to work with, an example is Pages. An Assign Access icon is available for each page listed.
