Forms Authorization

The actions that XperienCentral users can perform in the Interactive Forms module are based on role permissions. Depending on what role a user is assigned, they can only perform actions on forms, form fragments, form logic providers (routers, validators and handlers) to which they have a permission. These permissions are granted to a user role in the User Authorization dialog. An application manager can change the default permissions to grant more or fewer permission to a user role. The following table shows the default permissions for each Interactive Forms category for each user role.

Category	Casual User	Editor	Main Editor	Application Manager
Interactive Form Element		X	X	X
Interactive Form Fragments		X	X	X
Interactive Form Logic Providers		X	X	X
Interactive Forms	X	X	X	X
Interactive Forms Maintenance	X	X*	X	X

* Limited to the permission "Maintain Interactive Forms".

The category permissions shown in the table above are the XperienCentral default permissions. An application manager can of course choose to allow or disallow any permission at the category level or a specific permission or permissions within a category as they see fit depending on the circumstances of your deployment. If you are unsure whether you have a specific permission or would like to be granted a permission that you do not have, contact your application manager.

When you create a new form variant, it inherits the permission of the original. You can override the permissions for variants on a case by case basis. The following table summarizes the Interactive Forms permission categories:

Category	Description
Interactive Form Element	Permission to insert and edit an Interactive Form element in a content item.
