Authorization Roles Reference

Authoriziation roles are modelled as ReBAC and added to a workspace through the AuthPortal.

Role Types

There are 3 role types available within a workspace:

• Owner
• Approver
• Collaborator

Owner

The owner of the workspace is the person who initially created it. They are the person that can invite or remove other people from the workspace as well as being able to change the role of the people in a workspace. A workspace only has a single owner associated with it.

The owner of a workspace is automatically an approver of that workspace. This means that they have the power to approve and merge a change set.

Approver

A person can be designated as an approver for a workspace. That person can approve change set merge requests for the workspace. The approver role does have the permission to add more people to the workspace or to change the role of other in the workspace.

A workspace can have multiple approvers.

Collaborator

A collaborator is a person who can author and model within a workspace but who cannot apply a change set to HEAD. A collaborator needs to request approval before merging a change set. The collaborator role does have the permission to add more people to the workspace or to change the role of other in the workspace.

A workspace can have multiple collaborators.
