By assigning permissions, you restrict access to entities to authorized users. In Necto, you can assign permissions to the following entities:
§ Application
§ Data Source
§ Model
§ Workboard
§ User
Permissions are assigned to a role, and users belonging to that role inherit the permissions.
Workboards, data sources and models may be organized in a hierarchy of folders making it possible to grant permissions at the different levels of the tree. In a tree of entities, each level inherits permissions from the parent level. When there are overlapping permissions, Necto determines which permission will prevail based on weights and inheritance rules.
