Warning - Deactivating a User does not remove User! If you deactivate a User, this does not remove them from your Organization - they remain dormant members and can be reactivated. If a deactivated User’s details are updated, then other Users in the Organization will be able to view the updated details.

Assigning Permission Policies to Users

Two types of Permission Policy are available for controlling User access to your Organization:
  • Managed. System generated Permission Policies. Two Managed Permission Policies are currently available to assign to your Users, Service Users, or User Groups:
    • Administrator. Read and write permissions. Can submit API calls.
    • ReadOnly. Read permissions only. Cannot submit API calls.
Note: You cannot edit Managed Permission Policies.
  • Custom. Permission Policies you create for your own Organization:
    • You can use the m3ter Permissions framework to create and configure Custom Permission Policies to impose precise levels of access on individual Users and User Groups.
Warning: Working with Permission Policies? Before creating Custom Permission Policies to control Users access to your Organization, we recommend that you review the Understanding, Creating, and Managing Permission Policies topic.
