Project Permissions

From the project detail section, press Permissions to access the project permissions section. A list of currently allowed users and groups is displayed. Press to add new users or groups and automatically grant them the Open this project permission. The available users and groups are configured in the JMap Server section in JMap Admin. See Managing User Accounts and Groups for more information about managing users in JMap.

Project permissions are divided into two categories: administrator permissions and user permissions.

Administrator permissions

Administrator project permissions define the project administration rights for the users authorized to use JMap Admin. For more information on concepts related to permissions and administration roles in JMap Admin, refer to the Managing Permissions section.

Permissions
Administrate project	Allows an administrator to modify the project and its content.
Access project	Allows an administrator to access a project to view its content and to use it when deploying JMap applications.

User permissions

User project permissions determine which users and groups can open a project. Access will be denied to users who do not have the appropriate permissions. Security can also be configured at the layer level. For more information on this topic, refer to the Layer Permissions section.

Permissions
Open this project	Allows a user to open a project from a JMap application.

Anonymous user

Adding the Anonymous user to the list of users authorized to open the project gives users the possibility to open a project without any authentication. This is equivalent to removing all security for opening the project. This is useful for public applications, when no project access control is needed.

Everyone user

Adding the Everyone user to the list of users authorized to open the project allows all users to open the project, including the Anonymous user. This means that the project is accessible to all users, with or without authentication.

Authenticated users

Adding the Authenticated users to the list of users authorized to open the project allows any authenticated user to open a project. This is useful for private applications where all users are allowed to open a project but must authenticate themselves.
