Permissions

Hub’s permissions are granted to user groups or users along with Craft’s Access Hub permission.

There are two primary ones, Access data and Access structure. Each has a permission per page nested under it, which has the permissions of what can be done with the page’s items nested under it in turn.

Permission Allows

Page Page permission Permissions nested under it
Entries View entries Label · Bulk-edit · Export · Enable and disable · Change the authors · Move to another section · Delete drafts · Delete
Trashed entries View trashed entries Export · Restore · Delete permanently
Assets View assets Label · Bulk-edit · Export · Download · Move to another folder · Generate transforms · Delete transforms · Delete
Trashed assets View trashed assets Export · Restore · Delete permanently
Users View users Label · Bulk-edit · Export · Change the groups · Suspend (and unsuspend) · Delete

View users also covers the user groups tab and the users’ personal data. Trashed pages are nested under their page.

View entry types, View sections, View fields and View volumes open their pages below Structure. Each has Label … and Bulk-edit … nested under it, e.g. Label fields.

  • A page needs both the permission of its area and its own.
  • Bulk-edit … selects several items at once. Without it, actions apply to one item at a time, from its context menu.
  • Craft’s own permissions still apply to the actions: saving or deleting an entry, moving it to a section, changing the authors of peer entries, assigning a user group, and moderating or deleting users.
  • Admins have all permissions.

Hub shows no more than Craft does. Lists, detail pages and references only hold the entries of sections and the assets of volumes the user may view in Craft, peer entries and assets included, and nested entries by the entry owning them.

Statistics, the structure pages and the activity log aren’t limited by them, as they have permissions of their own.

The navigation only shows pages the user may view, and links to pages they may not open are shown as plain text. Links to Craft’s native settings pages are only shown to admins.
