Repository Access

The repository access methods are View, Update, and Secure. When you add a user group to the access list, that group is granted access to that object.

View

Defines who can view a repository and its properties. Users who have view access to a repository can see the properties of the repository and the properties of items and item paths in it when the item/path view access is granted at the item/path level.

Update

Defines who can view and modify the contents of a repository. The update method includes executing the load function, and when that item/path view access is granted at the item/path level, setting access to items and item paths in the repository, renaming items, deleting items and paths globally and permanently from the Administrator application. This access implicitly grants view repository access.

Secure

Defines who can add and delete access control records for a repository. The secure method does not imply being able to delete or update a repository. Users with access to the secure method must explicitly give themselves access to other methods; they are not automatically available.
