Permissions and Roles

BlastLogic enables multiple user roles to be created. Each role can be assigned with specific permissions. There are four types of permissions:

Global Only — Permission related to global operations and therefore only has an effect when granted in a global context. Assigning a role with this permission to a site-specific context will not grant access to these global operations.
Site Only — Permission only has effect on site-specific operations. Assigning a role with this permission to a site-specific context will grant access to these operations for that site only.
Context Specific — Permission relates to operations that can be both global and site-specific. Having the permission granted in a site-specific context grants access to the site-specific operations for that site only. It also grants access to the read-only global operations with this permission but not to the editing global operations. The permission needs to be granted in the global context to access the global editing operations. Limiting key functions to technical staff enables greater control of data entered and limits accidental editing by untrained users.
Universal — Permission relates to global operations but can be enabled by assigning the permission in any context. Assigning a role with this permission to a either a site-specific context or global context will grant access to the global operation.

The table below describes a number of permissions that can be assigned to roles which the user defines.
