Configuring Manager Permissions
You can allow users with the Manager permission to manage every Shares user and group in Shares, not just users and groups that are part of the shares they manage.
Allow managers to manage every Shares user and group through the Shares UI, through the Shares API, or both:
- Allow managers to administer users and groups through UI
- Allow managers to administer users and groups through API
These options are disabled by default.
In a common use case, admins may decide that managers should administer users solely through the API and disable access to the Shares UI. For more information about users configured to use the API, see Shares API Permissions.
For more information about managers and user roles in Shares, see Understanding User Roles and Share Authorization and Assigning Users the Manager Role.
