Per-Studio Role Based Access Control

Per-Studio Role Based Access Control (RBAC) provides CloudVision users with granular control over access permissions for individual studios. A relevant user can grant differing permissions to other users for both management and input configuration of individual studios. Management includes the studio creation and deletion, its template, and its schema; input configuration includes the assignment of tags and the configuration of a studio’s inputs.

A user’s permissions are controlled and assigned through the use of roles in Access Control. Each role is configured with separate No Access, Read Only, or Read and Write access for the Management and Input Configuration permissions of a studio.

By default there are no per-studio permissions for CloudVision built-in roles.

Role Permissions

On a per-studio basis, the permissions have the following effect:

Table 1. Role Permissions
Permission Management Input Configuration
No Access The user will not be able to access the studio’s schema and template or be able to delete the studio The user will not be able to see the studio in Studios
Read Only The user will only be able view a studios schema and template, and will not be able to delete the studio A user can only view the input configuration and device assignment of the studio
Read and Write The user can edit the schema and template of a studio and can delete the studio A user can configure the device assignment and inputs of the studio

Users may encounter on-screen errors when configuring roles if the permissions set for Management and Input Configuration do not result in a valid combination. A summary of the valid combinations is available here:

Accessing Per-Studio Permissions

Once Studios Role Based Access Control (RBAC) is enabled, any existing roles can be edited with per-studio permissions or new roles can be created with those permissions and assigned to users.

The permissions can be accessed through Roles in Access Control when editing or creating a role. Scroll down to Studios, which can be expanded to show the Per-Studio Permissions.

Each studio available in Studios can be added and permissions assigned to the role for that studio. Any studio that is not added to the list will have the global permissions defined above.

Updating Workspace Permissions

The permissions for Workspaces are impacted by any per-studio permissions.

A user with Read and Write permissions for any studios will not be able to create or manage workspaces if they do not have Read and Write permissions for Workspace Management. This means another user with the relevant permissions will need to create and build workspaces. Similarly, a user must have Read and Write access to Workspace Submission in order to submit a workspace. If a user has Read and Write access for a studio, they will be unable to submit any workspaces they use to configure the studio.

An error will be displayed when the user’s per-studio permissions conflict with their Workspace Submission permission.
