Setting access permissions for an asset category

The following procedure describes how to set the Asset Browser’s category permissions to
restrict access of a selected asset category to only a select group of users.

To restrict access of asset category to only a select group of users:
1.

With an Vertigo Suite application open (i.e. Xplorer, Xstudio, Xbuilder...etc.), right-click
on the asset category from the Asset Browser that you want to restrict access to. Select
the P

ERMISSIONS

command from the context menu (figure

20-47

).

The C

ATEGORY

S

ECURITY

dialog box appears and states that there are currently no

viewing restrictions set for the selected category. It further explains that the action of
adding a user or a group instantly hides the category from every user except those
users or groups add to this permission.

If the P

ERMISSIONS

command is disabled in the context menu, this indicates that either the

Authorization Manager is not installed; or that the Xmedia Server does not have its
Authorization Manager Configuration settings enabled or set properly; or the user does not
have access to the Policy Store.
