About permission sets

Tonic Structural uses permissions and permission sets to manage role-based access (RBAC) to Structural features and functions.

A permission grants access to a specific feature or function.

A permission set is a collection of permissions that can be assigned to a user or an SSO group.

Global permission sets

Global permission sets control access to features and functions that are outside of the context of a specific workspace.

Workspace permission sets

Workspace permission sets provide access to specific workspace management features and functions.

Workspace permission sets are assigned to users and groups within the context of a specific workspace. For example, a user might have the Editor permission set in one workspace and the Viewer permission set in another workspace.

Built-in and custom permission sets

Structural provides a set of built-in permission sets that you cannot edit or delete.

The Enterprise license plan also allows you to create custom permission sets.
