Roles

Roles are resources that define the access control policies for the core resources.

  • They specify the HTTP operations allowed on a given resource type.
  • They are associated to users
  • They are system managed.
  • There are 2 main roles : activityCreator and follower
  • Users with the roles activityCreator will have access to entity types and observation types
  • Users with the roles follower will have the access their actors define (link to actors here)
