Granting Access with Credentials and Access Permissions
...
Say you want to create a credential for a user whose responsibility it is to create and manage collections & data templates. You can design a custom credential that allows for access to the Viewer and Collection Manager while restricting access to the Administrator. Check create, edit and delete under the Templates settings and check create and delete under the collections settings to grant the appropriate permissions in the Collection Manager. Note, the permission to allow “editing” of a collection is set in the access permission. In this same credential, you’ll also grant access to export images and use My Uploads in the Viewer. Typically, the collection(s) you assign to this credential will be associated with the “admin” access permission or a customized access permission.
Good for visual resource librarians, faculty, curators.
