New Feature: Webstorm Role Based permissions

 new_feature  platform  role  roles


I would like to be able to give out permissions to others to help out with Webstorm administration but not in an All-Or-Nothing basis.  I would like to be able to give specific people and/or specific group in a webstorm access to certain admin functionality.

 

Here are some of the tasks I could think of that I may want to distribute to others (but not give them full admin rights)

 

Websotrm Tasks

-Ability to change an idea's status

-Ability to edit an idea

-Ability to change a webstorm's idea status list

-Ability to change a webstorm's category list

-Ability to edit HTML webparts

-Ability to add/remove/change location of webparts on a page

-Ability to change labels

-Ability to link ideas

-Ability to hide ideas

 

The most flexible system would have a layer called a "Role" and a Role could be a collection of bundled permissions settings and then people and groups could be given that "Role".  This was first available in the Platform and I'd certainly like that feature to come forward to the Webstorm now.

I understand and agree to limit all-access admin rights.

To set the individual as campaign manager would give most of these rights for this specific campaign, would it?
What are the rights you want to limit that woudl be granted to a campaign manager?

"To set the individual as campaign manager would give most of these rights for this specific campaign, would it?" Yes it would. But it also give ALL of the rights to the person and that is what I am trying to avoid. I would like to give someone the access to change status, but not the access to change widgets for example. Currently is ALL or NOTHING. My idea is to provide SOME.

gotcha. This would allow to have a number of SME (subject matter experts) or reviewers.
