Repository permissions


Roman Smirak (3164933) | asked Feb 13 '08, 7:08 a.m.
Hi,

I'm wondering how the repository permissions are defined. Are they
built-in Jazz or can I configure them?

I need following use case, for instance: Authenticated guest can submit any
work item (and watch the progress), but he/she cannot other work items.

Thanks,

Roman

Hi,

you can configure permissions in the process specification of a project area (and the process customization in team areas). Permissions are granted based on roles a contributor has in relation to a team area. Your use case would require permissions based on the relation of a contributor to a work item, which is currently not supported.

For example you can add a contributor to your team, assign it the 'commiter' role and specify that a work item's priority attribute can only be changed by contributors with that role.

Hi Christof,

or relation with Team area or Workitem category...

Are the default repository permissions (JazzUsers, Guests, JazzAdmin, etc.)
built-in Jazz or configurable?

Can you please point me to some documentation of it?

Roman

These seem to be built-in, https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/PermissionsReconciliation has some information on this. Someone from the Repository team would now the details.

JAZZ DEVELOPER
Repository permissions are stored in Jazz repository in Beta2 release. For
M5, repository roles are completely removed from the system. Admins should
configure LDAP registry or tomcat-users.xml for authentication and basic
read/write authorizations. The wiki page
https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/RoleMigrationAndLdapConfiguration has
more information on the changes in repository permission for M5.
