Managing User Permissions
Last updated July 24, 2024
This guide will help you understand and manage user permissions within your Frontegg application. Permissions define the specific actions that users with specific roles or groups can perform within your application.
Understanding Permissions
- Granular Control: Frontegg provides granular permission controls, allowing you to define fine-grained access for different aspects of your application. This ensures that users only have access to the features and data they need to perform their tasks.
- Role-Based Access Control (RBAC): Frontegg leverages RBAC to manage permissions effectively. Roles are assigned to users or groups, and permissions are associated with those roles. This simplifies permission management and ensures consistency across your user base.
- Common Permission Categories: Common permission categories include access to specific features, modifying data, managing settings, creating content, viewing reports, and other actions relevant to your application's functionality.
Managing Permissions
- Access Permissions Settings: Navigate to the "Roles" or "Permissions" section of your Frontegg dashboard. Depending on your Frontegg setup, you might find these settings under the "Users" or "Management" menu.
- View Role Permissions: Find the role whose permissions you want to manage, and access its "Permissions" section.
- Modify Permissions: Review the list of permissions associated with the role. You can enable or disable specific permissions to grant or restrict access to certain actions or data within your application.
- Add or Remove Permissions: Depending on your Frontegg version, you may be able to add or remove permissions from the list. Consider your security requirements and carefully choose the appropriate permissions for each role.
- Save Changes: Review any updates you've made to the permissions and save the changes to implement them for users or groups assigned that role.
