Set permissions for AI connection

By setting permissions for an AI connection, you define the level of access that groups or users have for the connection.

When setting permissions, consider the following rules:

  • User-level permissions take priority over group-level permissions.

    Example: If a user is allowed to edit a connection, but at the same time this user is a member of a group that does not have the permission to edit, the user will still have the capability to edit the connection.

  • The most restrictive permissions take priority when a user belongs to several groups at the same time.

    Example: A user belongs to both groups, Group A and Group B. Group A can edit the connection, but Group B does not have this permission. The user will not be able to edit the connection.

Prerequisites

  • You have a connection in the AI connections pane.

  • You have all the necessary role permissions granted by an administrator in Access Manager.
