Folder Permissions

Entities are stored in folders. As security experts, system administrators assign users and user groups the rights they have on the entities stored in a specific folder. The following permissions can be set per folder:

Read

Right to access a folder and view its entities. You must consider certain dependencies. Users with read permissions on a top-level entity can see its sub-entities too.
Use

Right to refer to the entities in this folder from other entities
Write

Right to change the entities in this folder
Delete

Right to delete the entities in this folder
Execute

Right to use the entities in this folder when executing Workflows

The following entities are stored in dedicated folders:

Application
Component
Deployment Profile
Deployment Target
Environment
Environment Reservation
Login
Package
Queue
Workflow (Application and General)

The folder permissions are managed on the Folder Authorizations page of a user or user group definition by an administrator. See Granting Release Automation (CDA) Folder Authorizations.
