A user's role determines what they can and cannot do in a site. Each role has a default
set of permissions.
The following sections describe these permissions. In general:
- Managers have full rights to all site content - what they have created themselves and what other site members have created.
- Collaborators have full rights to the site content that they own; they have rights to edit but not delete content created by other site members.
- Contributors have full rights to the site content that they own; they cannot edit or delete content created by other site members.
- Consumers have view-only rights in a site: they cannot create their own content.
Note: As well as these four default roles you might also see additional roles in different
places in SkyVault Share.
- Coordinator - has full rights to all content - what they have created themselves and what others have created.
- Editor - has rights to edit file properties and check files in and out; they cannot create their own content.
Your SkyVault dministrator can also add additional roles.
Site managers can change a site role for the site users.
If you're a member of two user groups which have different permissions then you will get the sum total of all the permissions. For example, if Group 1 has permission to view a file and Group 2 has permission to view and edit a file, then you would have view and edit permission for the file.
Note: Site content can be defined as any content created or added to a site. This includes,
but is not limited to, wiki pages, blog postings, library folders and items, calendar
events, discussion topics, and comments on any content.
