Permission reference

Every permission you can tick on a principal or a policy, and what holding it lets someone do. The permission form groups them by area and labels them Read, Write, Configure, Delete, Testing, Admit and Assign; the tables below follow the same grouping.

How these grants combine, and which groups each policy scope offers, is in Access management. What to tick for a particular job is in Give someone the right access.

Notes

A permission is necessary but not always sufficient: a section can also require a plan that includes the feature. Automation, for instance, needs both Automation → Read and a plan with automation rules. See Why a section is missing.

The form may show groups beyond the ones above, for features a particular space has and others do not. A group you cannot see is one your space does not use.
