Permissions and Dependence

Some permissions apply only to a very specific content type on the BIMcloud (e.g. Start/Stop Server is only applicable to the Servers content type). If a specific permission does not make sense for a content type where it has been granted, then it simply has no effect.

Certain permissions will only be effective if another permission is also granted.

Examples:

View Item permission is superior to all other permissions. If a user does not have View Item permissions, then the other permissions related to that item will not be effective, since the user cannot find the item in the BIMcloud Manager.

View Access permission is superior to the Modify Access permission. The Access panel of an item will only appear if the View Access permission is also granted. Without seeing the Access panel, it is not possible to edit anything on it.
