Permissions

The Permissions, or Permissions List, interface is where individual permissions can be managed from the staff client. The interface is accessed through Administration > Server Administration > Permissions. It displays the permissions available through your default installation of Evergreen along with any custom permissions that have been created locally.

The table of permissions includes three columns:

  1. ID: Displays the permission’s ID as it appears in the Evergreen database.

  2. Code: Displays the name of the permission as it appears in the Evergreen database.

  3. Description: States what action the permission allows the user to do.

The Permissions List in the appendix provides a list of available permissions with their descriptions.
