    • Role permissions refer to the access rights assigned to different roles to create, view, or edit architectural artifacts. These permissions enable only users having the authorized role to perform any actions on architectural artifacts.

    Before you begin

    Important:
    Starting from Xanadu Patch 4 release, the Role Permissions tab has been deprecated from Enterprise Architecture Workspace. However, you can still manage access permissions for architectural artifacts using the Share feature. For more information, see Manage access to architectural artifacts.

    Role required: All users with Writer permission assigned.

    About this task

    You can create role permissions and associate them with architectural artifacts. Based on your existing role, you can provide certain role permissions.
    • If you’re the owner of the architectural artifact, you can provide Reader, Writer, and Owner role permission to other users.
    • If you’re assigned the Writer role permission to an architectural artifact, you can provide Writer or Reader role permission to other users.
    • If you’re assigned the Reader role permission to an architectural artifact, you can’t provide any role permission to other users.
