Access Control to specific Team Streams within one project


Jonathan Belanger (3652) | asked Mar 09 '11, 11:55 a.m.
We are looking at how we want to configure streams in RTC. What we ahve is a single integration stream with many other streams feeding into this. This idea is to define a project stream with many team streams that deliver into the project stream. What we'd like to do is define access controls in such a way that a user in one team cannot look into or modify anything about the other team. Is this possible, or should we look at having multiple projects with project specific streams that then feed into an "integration" stream?

I believe you should be able to create team areas under the project area and override permissions with roles just for your team area. Set a team stream to be owned by its team area and assign roles for the team members that allow delivery to the stream. Each team will have to customize their team area to disallow delivery unless the contributor is made a member and given a role in the team area.

You can control write access to the streams just by assigning the
different streams to different team areas in the same project area, and
setting up the "deliver(server)" Operation Behavior to only allow
delivery by someone that has a specified role in the team area.
But to control read access, you'd have to create additional project
areas (but you don't need to use those additional project areas for
anything beyond access control lists).

Cheers,
Geoff
