      How do I assign role-based access control (RBAC) to users?

      You can provide user accounts with different levels of access - This article provides information on the role-based access control feature in AppScore

      Role-based access control (RBAC) is performed by Administrators and accessed through SETTINGS (Cog icon) in the top right-hand corner of the screen and then USERS  from the left-hand menu.

      Assigning a role

      Each AppScore user is required to have an assigned role and these roles control the level of access to AppScore's features.

      There are 8 different types of user roles that can be assigned to a user.

      • Admin User - Full platform-wide rights with no restrictions 

      Administration access should be limited in use

      • Power User - This user has full access to all applications and servers data and limited access to platform settings 
      • Read and Report Only User (R&R) -  This user has read-only access to all applications and server's data
      • Power User Assigned (Power*) - This user has full access to all assigned applications and server's data
      • Default User - This user has view-only access to assigned applications 
      • Technical User - This user role can only see assigned application questions that have been categorised as "technical" and has no visibility of 7Rs recommendations or scoring  
      • Business User - This user role can only see assigned application questions that have been categorised as "business" and has no visibility of 7Rs recommendations or scoring  
      • Application User - This user role can only see assigned application questions that have been categorised as "application" and has no visibility of 7Rs recommendations or scoring  
      • Internal User - This user role has access to questions and areas designated as Internal Only

      Technical, Business and Application roles are not mutually exclusive and can be combined in any order.

      AppScore questions are assigned the Technical, Business and Application roles and Internal in the Data Point Control File - Please refer to the following  KB article for guidance on assigned questions
