Control access by user role

Create a role
A role defines the applications that project members with that role can use, and the specific things project members can do in each application.

Create a project administrator role
The project administrator is responsible for managing the project's users and roles.

Change a role
If users need to do things that are not allowed by a role you have assigned to them, you may need to change the permissions associated with that role.

Give roles to a project member
A project member can have any number of roles. As project administrator, you must assign each project member's roles.

Give a role to multiple project members
A role can be assigned to many users at once.

Handle a role request from a project member
A project member in CollabNet TeamForge can ask to be granted a role. As the project administrator, it's up to you to approve or reject such requests.

Assign a global project role on request
As a project administrator you can edit a requestable global project role for your project. You can update the settings to immediately assign the role to a project member on request.

Assign roles to a user group
Enable multiple users to do something all at once by giving their group a role.

Assign user groups to a role
To manage permissions for a lot of groups or roles at once, try assigning user groups to roles.

View users and user groups assigned to a role
Before adding a role to a project member or user groups, see all the users and user groups who are assigned that role through inheritance.
