Rights Management

   

The rights in Picturepark are defined at various points and allow for individual customisation to your rights requirements. We distinguish between:

 

folder_close_blUser Rights

In Picturepark rights are not given directly to users, but to individual user groups. A user is granted rights by adding them to one or more user groups.

 

The user group rights are divided into the following areas:

  • User group rights: Rights to other user groups and their users
  • Derivative rights: Rights to order individual derivatives
  • User rights: Rights of the user to administrative functions, the importing and editing of assets, orders and other functions.
  • Field rights: Rights on metadata fields, whereby we distinguish between view and edit rights

folder_open_blImpersonate

The rights of a user group or a specific user can easily and conveniently be checked by impersonating. On impersonating you temporarily change to another user group or user and user Picturepark with the rights asssigned to this user group / user. The impersonate function can be called in the user menu under impersonate.

After selecting a user or user group, they will appear on the top right in the menu area (for groups you will see "impersonated groups"). To deactivate the function you only need to click on the name of the user or on "impersonated groups":
