'''Appendix 2 Rights'''
'''Appendix 2 Rights'''


This is a reference for rights in RT. The rights are broken down into three tables: global, queue, and group. Within those tables, rights are listed alphabetically. Each right has full description on wiki.
This is a reference for rights in RT.


See also [[Rights]] article.
There are a great deal of places in RT where you can assign rights to a group or a user. While this is a feature of RT, we recommend adding users to a group, then applying rights directly on that group. When rights are granted on specific users, it can become more challenging to manage each user's rights.
 
Below is a list of all the areas in RT to update group and user rights. From the Admin menu:
 
 
* Custom Fields
:* Custom Fields > Select > [select custom field] > Group Rights
:* Custom Fields > Select > [select custom field] > User Rights
:* Global > Custom Fields > [select Users, Groups, Queues, Tickets, Articles, Assets] > [select custom field] > Group Rights
:* Global > Custom Fields > [select Users, Groups, Queues, Tickets, Articles, Assets] > [select custom field] > User Rights
 
[[File:Queue-Group-Rights.png|Queue level rights by group|thumb|500px]]
 
* Groups
:* Groups > Select > [select group] > Group Rights
:* Groups > Select > [select group] > User Rights
:* Global > Group Rights
 
* Queues
:* Queue > Select > [select queue] > Group Rights
:* Queue > Select > [select queue] > User Rights


(Careful when you edit tables - you might need to manually reformat them)
* Users (not suggested)

Global group rights

Appendix 2 Rights

This is a reference for rights in RT.

There are a great deal of places in RT where you can assign rights to a group or a user. While this is a feature of RT, we recommend adding users to a group, then applying rights directly on that group. When rights are granted on specific users, it can become more challenging to manage each user's rights.

Below is a list of all the areas in RT to update group and user rights. From the Admin menu:


  • Custom Fields
  • Custom Fields > Select > [select custom field] > Group Rights
  • Custom Fields > Select > [select custom field] > User Rights
  • Global > Custom Fields > [select Users, Groups, Queues, Tickets, Articles, Assets] > [select custom field] > Group Rights
  • Global > Custom Fields > [select Users, Groups, Queues, Tickets, Articles, Assets] > [select custom field] > User Rights
Queue level rights by group
  • Groups
  • Groups > Select > [select group] > Group Rights
  • Groups > Select > [select group] > User Rights
  • Global > Group Rights
  • Queues
  • Queue > Select > [select queue] > Group Rights
  • Queue > Select > [select queue] > User Rights
  • Users (not suggested)
  • Global > User Rights
