Second draft of user roles

After discussion with the team on November 1st, 2019, a new set of user roles was proposed deriving from the original.

To reduce the number of user roles but still provide granularity of capabilities that enable a better control of access and data shearing the following roles were set:

 

Viewer

To summarize:

  • Viewer: can view content and be part of a group

  • User: can create content directly in the portal and share with groups

  • Publisher: has all the user capabilities plus can publish content from desktop applications (ArcMap, ArcGIS Pro) to portal, perform some extra analysis and share with portal
