Knowledge Store Permissions

Knowledge Store access rights are granted by your CA Clarity PPM administrator. Access to folders and documents are granted on a case-by-case basis. When you create or administer a folder or document, you must identify the resources who can access the folder or document, and give them permission to read, read/write, or read/write/delete on the folder or document. The permission level determines the actions resources can take on a folder or document.

The following table describes the permissions you need to take action in the Knowledge Store or Document Manager:
