Managing User Access

Managing User Access

DaRIS uses Role-Based Access Control to manage user access permissions.

DaRIS Project Roles (Access Levels)

Each DaRIS project defines a set of hierarchical roles that determine the level of access granted to users within the project.

Managing User Access Through Project Roles

Users can be assigned one or more project roles to determine:

  • Which projects they can access

  • Their level of access within each project

A user can have access to multiple projects in DaRIS, with different project roles (access levels) assigned for each project.

In the DaRIS web portal, Project Administrators can grant or revoke access to a project by assigning or removing project roles for users.
