Associating Permissions with Roles

Permissions are security characteristics of documents that associate a role with a capability. The capabilities are the following:

  • read

  • insert

  • update

  • node-update

  • execute

Users gain the authority to perform these capabilities on a document if they are assigned a role to which a permission is associated.

For more details on how permissions interact with documents, see Document Permissions.
