Details: A user has left the company and the supervisor needs to review their experiments. How can they get access to the experiments without being an administrator or having an administrator share the experiment with them? Is there a way to ensure supervisors to have access to the notebooks an experiments of other users all the time?
Solution: You can specify privileges for full control access to notebooks and experiments to groups that are not administrators using the Security policies. To do so please follow these steps:
1. Log into Signals Notebook as an Administrator
2. Create a system group for 'Supervisors'
3. Add the supervisor users to the group
4. Go to 'System Configuration' > 'Security Policy'
5. Click 'Edit'
6. Create a rule to grant "entity.full_control" to the created 'Supervisors' group for notebooks and experiments
7. Click 'Save Changes'
8. Click 'Save and Apply Changes'
Rule Examples:
# Grants full control access to all Notebooks for the specified group
RULE "Full Control All Notebooks"
IF
user group in "Supervisors" AND
resource type equal "notebook"
THEN
grant "entity.full_control"
# Grants full control access to all Experiments for the specified group
RULE "Full Control All Experiments"
IF
user group in "Supervisors" AND
resource type equal "experiment" AND
resource userTemplateFlag equal "FALSE"
THEN
grant "entity.full_control"
