Permissions

Permissions give administrators control over the way account users can access, modify, and interact with objects in the account. Most permissions are set when Users and Objects are created, or when creating a Shared View. Permissions are added and removed primarily with limitation by inclusion, as administrators select the objects they want user to have access to by clicking on the boxes next to their names.

Each object has its own permission settings that can be modified at the object level in the details panel or while being created. For example, when creating a new Place, users will have the option to toggle the Users that can interact from that place directly from the Add a Place interface. Most portal objects have permissions that can be assigned by administrators, and revoked, edited, or otherwise changed at any time at the user level or at the obeject level.
