Private vs Public Subscriptions

Subscriptions can be either private or public. The difference between private or public is who can assign this Subscription to a Role.

Note: Usually, if you are not an administrator, you will make all of your subscriptions private, so that they cannot be assigned to other users. However, if you make one of your subscriptions public, an administrator can assign it to other roles.

• A private subscription can be assigned to one or more Roles only by the creator of the subscription.

  Note: Only a creator with admin rights or in the role of an Administrator can assign these private subscriptions to other roles.

• A public subscription can be assigned to a Role by any System Administrator or Group Administrator who has the ability to edit the Role.
