# Spatial Data Source Permissions

In the details section of a spatial data source, click on **Permissions** to access the permissions section. You can also modify permissions in batches. To do this, select several data sources in the list and click on **Permissions**.

A list of authorized users and groups displays. Click on ![img](/files/tuAQkIS1bWSBChLNGqZU) to add new users or groups. The available users and groups are configured in the JMap Server section of JMap Admin. Refer to the [Managing Users and Groups](/en2/administrator/jmap-server-administrator-manual/security/managing-users.md) section for more information on managing users in JMap.

Only administrator permissions are associated with spatial data sources.
