Basic login Permission issue

Hi,

 

I have an AEM workflow which creates lots of groups when run on a folder, but when i am assigning user to the created group i can just see an error page once i login. how can i give basic set of permission to a group so that  the assigned user can login and view /content/dam/assets page.(not the folders) because folders will be assigned on some condition. 

 

I am planning to create on main group manually/programatically and assign all the workflow created groups to it, so all the basic permissions will be part of that main group.

Hi @shikhasoni1,

You're right on track with the idea of creating a main group that will hold all the basic permissions needed for users to log in and access the assets page.
Give this main group permissions like:

  • Read access to /content/dam/assets so users can see the assets.
  • Login permissions to access AEM. Add all the groups created by your workflow as members of this main group. This way, they’ll inherit the permissions automatically.
  • Please use a test user from one of the groups to log in and check if they can access the assets page smoothly.
  • Since folder permissions are conditional, you can manage these separately by adding specific permissions to the workflow-created groups as needed.

By centralizing permissions in a main group, you make it easier to manage access and avoid those pesky error pages.

    If you are planning to provide permission to certain group then 

    1 Create the group

    2 Add ACE config to that group to that path

    3 Add permission as jcr:read/rep:write

    Save it

    Add the test user to that group and login with that user 

     

    You can also use Netcentric tool and create yaml file and applied to it

     

    Thanks
