Access Control

The VALT Software is compromised of 6 main sectionsVALT 6-4-18 Users&Groups 01.png🖼️.


Access to these sections, and their associated features, can be controlled at two distinct levels within the software: the group level and the user level.

Outside of the core 6 sections found within the main navigation, there are two additional permissions that can be revoked or granted.

  1. BEAM
  2. API

Role Management

User Groups

At the core of our permission structure, the majority of access is defined at the group level. By establishing permission settings at this level, you can streamline management and ensure consistent access controls for users within the same group.

VALT 6-4-18 Users&Groups 02.png


⇧ Back to Top

Users

Rights defined at the group level are automatically inherited by the individual users assigned to those groups, simplifying the administration of rights.

In addition to the group-level rights, our software allows for further customization at the individual user level. This means that specific access rights can be fine-tuned to cater to unique requirements, providing an extra layer of control over user privileges.

Rights

How They're Applied

Group-Level
Here are lists of the rightsVALT 6-4-18 Users&Groups 03.png🖼️ within VALT and the corresponding access they grant. The tables below illustrate whether each permission can be configured at the group level, user level, or both.

User-Level Override

While permissions are primarily configured at the group-level, additional permissions can be granted at the user-level.

✎
Permissions can only be granted at this level. Permissions are revoked at the group-level.
