Ondexx Right Descriptions

Overview

Rights determine what a user can do within an Ondexx site. These rights can be assigned to Roles, Groups, and individual users to provide and control the access of all users in a Site. Refer to this help article for a general overview of Ondexx Rights.

Each right enables certain menus and options. Below is a detailed description of what aspect of a site each right controls. By default, the mandatory Site Owner role will have all of these rights enabled.

Instance-level Rights

Ondexx has several instance-level rights, that provide elevated privileges throughout an Ondexx instance, outside of sites. These rights are assigned directly to a user’s account.

Super Admins gain unrestricted access to an Ondexx instance, including the ability to manage settings for the instance, and edit user profiles without restriction. Please refer to this help article for information on the Super Administrator instance-level right.

User Admins gain the ability to audit and edit the users of an Ondexx instance. Please refer to this help article for information on the User Administrator instance-level right.
