Designer group access

The Class Designer and Application Designer access groups can perform particular tasks and updates at the object store level.

Normally, administrator access grants permission to all of the tools and functions in theAdministration Console for Content Platform Engine. For example, an administrator can create classes, workflow definitions, and configure security. But a full-access administrator can also change domain properties and configuration, use Data Design features, and edit the settings of the Global Configuration Database.

When you configure the designer group permissions, access is restricted to specific functions by group. The functions that are available to the Class Designer and Application Designer groups are concentrated in the Object Store area. This restriction means that members of the designer group can only create configuration and design settings at the object store level, not for a high-level Content Platform Engine environment.

The following table illustrates the differences in access for the groups:
