Permissions

As the owner of a data source (DS), you can grant access permissions to other users within your organization.

Permissions can be assigned to:

• Members with the Editor or Viewer role;

• Groups;

• API keys.

Each role has different levels of access.

Editor	Owner This permission, the broadest, allows the user to: grant access permissions to members of the organization, delete the DS. The SDS must have at least one owner.
Editor	Modify This permission allows the user to modify the DS settings.
Viewer	View For the user with the VIEWER role, this permission, combined with the Extract Features permission, allows the user to view SDS data in a cartographic application (such as JMap NG). For a user with the EDITOR role, this permission allows the use to view the DS in JMap Cloud Portal and use it in projects.
Viewer	Extract Features (Spatial DS) This permission allows the user to extract features from the SDS and, combined with the View permission, allows to view SDS features in a cartographic application (such as JMap NG). Extract Data (Non spatial DS) This permission allows the user to extract data from the DS and, combined with the View permission, allows to view DS data in a cartographic application (such as JMap NG).
Viewer	Create Features (Spatial DS) This permission allows the user to create features in the SDS in a cartographic application (such as JMap NG). Insert Data (Non spatial DS) This permission allows the user to insert data to the DS in a cartographic application (such as JMap NG).
Viewer	Edit Geometries (Spatial DS) This permission allows the user to edit the geometry of SDS features in a cartographic application (such as JMap NG)
Viewer	Edit Attributes (Spatial DS) This permission allows the user to edit the attributes of SDS features in a cartographic application (such as JMap NG). Update data (Non spatial DS) This permission allows the user to modify the values of DS fields in a cartographic application (such as JMap NG).
Viewer	Delete Features (Spatial DS) This permission allows the user to delete features from the SDS in a cartographic application (such as JMap NG). Delete data (Non spatial DS) This permission allows the user to delete data from the DS in a cartographic application (such as JMap NG).

Granting Permissions

Permissions follow a hierarchical structure:

• Owner includes both Edit and View permissions;

• Edit automatically includes View;

• Viewer role-based permissions are at the base of the hierarchy and always include View.

Steps to grant permissions:

1. Click the icon next to a DS, then select Permissions. The permissions management interface will open, displaying:

   • the name of the DS;

   • the list of members, groups, and API keys with their current permissions.

2. To add a new recipient:

   • Open the dropdown list in the Add a member field;

   • Select a member, group, or API key (one at a time). The selected name appears with a letter indicating their role. You can clear a selection using the ✕ icon if needed.

   • Click to include the recipient in the permissions list.

3. Check the boxes to assign the appropriate permissions to each recipient.

Groups cannot be assigned the Owner permission.

Modifying or Removing Permissions

You can at any time:

• change existing permissions;

• add new recipients;

• remove all permissions from one or more members, groups, or API keys.

Steps to manage permissions:

1. Click , then select Permissions to open the configuration interface.

2. Check or uncheck the relevant boxes to update permissions.

A DS must always have at least one member with Owner permission.

To remove all permissions:

• Start by unchecking the highest-level permission (e.g., Owner). The next level (e.g., Edit) becomes the highest active permission.

• For Viewer-type permissions, you must first uncheck the specific sub-permissions before removing the general View right.

To delete members, groups, or API keys:

• Check the box next to each name;

• Click the icon to remove them from the list.
