DNG Configure Permission for Add Comments based on Folder


sandeep rao (131313) | asked Dec 14 '16, 9:07 a.m.

Hi,

We have a requirement in DNG, where we have a user "User1"  and 2 folders "Folder A"  and "Folder B" and 2 team areas "TeamArea A" and "TeamArea B" . "Folder A" is associated to  "TeamArea A" and "Folder B" is associated to  "TeamArea B".  We want to restrict User1 from adding comment only to the artifacts in Folder A and restrict adding comment to artifacts in Folder B.

While we checked for possible permission configuration for "Add Comments" in DNG, "Add Comments" operation is configurable at project level and when configured to some role and assigned to User1 in TeamArea Ait will have allow User1 to add comment for artifacts in Folder A but does not restrict User1 from adding comment to artifacts in Folder B. Is this the feature of DNG or the BUG? How should this permission be configured in DNG to get the desired result as in our requirement?

Thanks in Advance!

As far as I can tell, also as you have observed, the "Save comments" operation is controlled at the project level _only_. You can assign different roles for the same user in the project area and in team areas, but it does not affect the permission assignment for this operation at all. The permissions that you can grant and revoke are those you can see in the team area.
