Roles and permissions

Every organization is different, so roles and permissions are extremely flexible in Dastra.

General Functioning

Each user can be associated with 1 or more roles. The roles are themselves associated with a list of permissions (e.g.: write in the registry, post a request to exercise a right...). There are two ways to manage the roles associated with users.

• If you are an owner, you can use this account management interface

• If you have the role of entity administrator, you can manage the roles and permissions of users belonging to your entity using this interface.

Create your own roles

To create your own roles associated with permissions, go to this page.

You can create a custom "new role" by clicking on the "Create a new role" button

It is possible to select the boxes associated with permissions

Creating a role

Read/Write own elements: Users can only view and edit items assigned to them within the module.

Read: Users can view all items in the module.

Writing: Allows modification of all items in the module.

Export: Permits exporting all items.

Import: Allows importing all items into the module.

Notification: Users receive notifications for all items in the module.

It is not possible to select both “Read/Write own elements” and permissions on all items for the same role in a module. Users can access either only their own items or all items.

Once you've created your custom role, you can assign it to any workspace user within your organization.

Clone an existing role

To save time when creating a new role based on an existing configuration, you can clone a role in a single click. Open the role you want to duplicate, then click "Clone". A new role is created immediately with all the same permissions as the source role — simply rename it and adjust any permissions as needed.

This is particularly useful for creating variants of an existing role (e.g. a "DPO Contributor" role that is slightly different from a regular "Contributor") without starting from a blank canvas.
