Granting Explicit Privileges for Deployment Functions

You can grant explicit privileges for deployment features to users or groups. Certain privileges relating to promotion and demotion can be specified for specific projects/streams and deployment stages, and privileges for deployment and rollback can also be specified for specific areas.

For details about Dimensions CM deployment, see the Dimensions CM Help Center.

PRIVILEGES Manage Privileges

NOTE When certain privilege or role assignments are updated in the Administration Console, the changes may not take effect until you restart the client session. This behavior depends on variables set in the dm.cfg file. For details, see the Administration Guide.

To grant deployment privileges for projects, streams, or deployment stages:

1. In the Administration Console, navigate to Users and Roles > Privilege Assignments.

2. In the Privileges tab, click the Privileges button in the toolbar.

3. In the navigation pane, select the privilege category from the list, Administration Privileges or Product Level Privileges.

4. In the navigation tree, find and select the appropriate privilege. Privilege details and grant rules are displayed in the content pane.

5. In the Explicit Grant/Deny Rules section of the content pane, click the Add button and select an appropriate option: Grant User, Deny User, Grant Group, Deny Group.

6. In the dialog box that opens, In the Scope to section, specify the following details:

1. Project/Stream. To apply the privilege only to a specific project or stream, click the browse button and select a project or stream.

2. Stage. To apply the privilege only when the selected project/stream is at a specific deployment stage, select the stage from the list.

3. Deployment Area(s). If the privilege relates to deployment or rollback, select the deployment area to which the privilege applies.
