Create and assign User Roles

Assign default roles or create new roles with custom permissions.

 

The Antero program comes with two default roles that already have permissions to view and delete data in all sections.

To strengthen access control, administrators have the ability to limit access to particular sections of the program by assigning varying levels of permissions. These roles established by administrators provide permissions like View, Delete, No Access, and Add/Edit for different sections. User privileges determine which features a user can access or use within the program.

Users with the View permission can access and view data.

The Delete permission grants users full access to data.

Restricting access with the No Access permission completely blocks users from accessing data.

Enabling the Add/Edit permission allows users to both create and modify data.

If you intend to use the default permissions, simply follow steps 1, 2, and 6 as detailed in the instructions provided.

To set up custom roles and grant privileges within the Antero database, follow the steps outlined below:

Please note that the DB Admin privilege is necessary to complete this task.

1. To access user security settings, click on the top left ribbon and select File > Database Admin > User Security.

2. Choose the 'roles' option and then click on the blue + symbol to set up a new role.

3. Enter a name and description for the customized role, then proceed to click on the save button to complete the role creation process.

4. Select the recently created role from the list on the left, then utilize the drop-down menu for each option to allocate the specific permissions desired for this role. Also, make sure to mark the checkboxes next to the privileges that need to be granted access to the user.

5. Choose the user you wish to assign from the list on the left within the User's tab.

Assign user privileges and roles by selecting the checkboxes that match the roles and privileges you want to assign to the user.
