The roles and permissions

Abstract

The access rights that different users have to Sitecore items, content, and functionality.

The following table gives you an overview of the security settings for both the Design Manager and the Document Publisher. Both users need standard Sitecore roles. You should create roles to arrange the access rights for folders. Then you can create users and assign roles and permissions.

Note

By default, Document Publisher users see the Design Manager shortcut on the Sitecore dashboard. To make sure a Document Publisher user does not see the Design Manager shortcut, you need to disable read access.
