Permission changes

This release includes several changes to permissions.

Permissions for personal streams
  • The permissions to modify a personal stream were removed because personal stream owners can now modify personal streams by default, such as archive, restore, or scrub them.
     
  • New permissions are available to manage personal streams that other team members own. For example, you can archive, modify, scrub, or view the personal streams of other team members. By default, these permissions are only assigned to the Administrator role.
     
  • You can now use team areas to assign permissions for personal streams.
    • A personal stream is created with the same team area as its shared stream, but you can change the team area.
    • The team area controls access for other team members, not the owner of the personal stream.
    • These permissions are assigned to roles at the project or team level.
    • Personal streams are not strictly private. Team members with a direct URI to another team member's personal stream can view it.

Other permissions
  • The permissions assigned to the default process roles for Dashboards, Process, and Reports were made consistent.
     
  • During an upgrade, if a role ID matches a built-in role, the designated permission changes are applied regardless of role customization, but other permissions are left as is. To prevent this behavior, change the role ID.
     
  • The "modify contributions" permissions were removed. Now, a single "modify" privilege allows modifications to both properties and contributions.
    Note:
    The contributions of baselines cannot be changed, regardless of privileges.
