Managing access for process apps

Note: To manage permissions for individual process apps, you must have Manage access permission for the particular process apps. When you have created a process app, you will automatically be granted Manage access permissions for the app.

Introduction

In Process Mining you can grant access to process apps for users and groups. Based on the permissions, users who are granted access can edit, view, or delete process apps, or manage access for process apps.

Note: By default, users who belong to a group inherit the access permissions as defined for the group. When editing the permissions for the user, you cannot lower the permissions for the user.

Below is an overview of the different permissions that can be set for users or groups.

Permission	Description
Manage access	The user, or users in the group, can manage access for the app.
Edit	The user, or users in the group, can edit the app, upload data, and publish the app.
View	The user, or users in the group, can view the app.
Delete	The user, or users in the group, can delete the app.

Note: Edit permission includes View permission. When you assign Edit permission to a user or a group of users, the View permission is selected automatically for these user or users. Similarly, when you remove the View permission, the Edit permission is removed automatically.

Inheritance

When you select a (set of) permissions for a group, the permissions are automatically selected for the individual users who belong to the group.

Note: You cannot change inherited permissions. However, you can grant additional permissions.

Roles and permissions

Although you can select the permissions as desired, it can be useful to assign permissions based on the user's role. Below is an overview of the permissions that are relevant for the different roles.

Role	Manage access	Edit	View	Delete
Business user	No	No	Yes	No
Developer	Yes	Yes	Yes	Yes
Administrator	No	No	No	No
