Define Security Roles

Access to applications and the content within applications in the Syniti Construct is granted through security roles. A role is a single unit used to authorize specified security to the assigned user. Users can be assigned to multiple roles.

Roles manage two forms of access to the Syniti Construct:

• Application access - driven by WebApp Group assignment.

• Content access - driven by Security Definition Key Value assignment.

Additionally, Syniti Construct WebApps include a range of WebApp Groups intended to be used as building blocks for custom roles. Refer to Delivered WebApp Groups and Assign WebApp Groups to Security Roles for more information.

Role Types

Role types determine which permissions can be granted with each role.

There are three types of security roles:

• Standard -Allows WebApp Groups and Security Keys assignment. Create or customize application roles to manage application and content access for typical user roles.

• Content -Allows Security Keys assignment only. Create content roles to grant access to specific data in an application.

• Application -Allows WebApp Groups assignment only.

To efficiently manage application and content access, assign users a combination of roles that grant Application and Content access.
