Add a Project Policy

Project Policies are added to the project to define the level of access a user can have on a given project. Eclipse allows administrators to add a new project policy directly to the project or select from the list of previously created project policies.

1. Add Policy

  • Click New Policy or choose from existing policies.

Note: If Default Project Creator's Project Policy is marked as Creator Policy (Global Admin level), then Project Creator is automatically assigned to Default Project Creator's Project Policy.

2. Confirm or Define Name, Permissions, Members, Description

Permissions

Clicking on individual permission names can also provide you with useful information. Certain permissions have a cascade effect – by selecting them, other permissions are automatically selected and can’t be unselected. To select or unselect all permissions you can click on the Check All or Uncheck All buttons at the top of the Policy dialog box.

Members

For frequently used or common policies it is recommended that you define the Membership with the use of User Groups. If User Group is added rather than each individual user, then any subsequent addition to that particular User Group will have the required access.

Note: If a project policy has an Eclipse User Group as one of its members, ALL members of that User Group will receive the policy’s permissions for that project (even if they were not explicitly added as a resource on the current project).
