Why CUG not restricting auther to access the folder when it is not present in CUG?

I have added only 2 users into CUG on myfolder.

Logically only 2 users should to access myfolder.

But By using admin credentials I am able to access the myfolder.

Why this so?

Which ACL privilege makes admin to access all content?

What is the default name of administrators group ? Can we change the default name of administrators group?


The default name is "administrators" only, you can change the name, but not id.

Administrators group is the exception to CUGs.  By default, if a user is a member of the administrators group, CUGs won't have an effect on them.

    Hi @sdouglasmcsonova 

    But admin is not part of Administrators group

    Can we change the name of administrators group name in AEM.

      Admin user is a superuser, who can perform any action in AEM, so even if you have added any restriction on an action in AEM, admin can also perform this action.

        so admin will have always name as "admin"? or there could be another name ?

        And also how to make any user as admin?

          as per jackrabbit documentation [1], "The admin user is always being created. The ID of this user is retrieved from the user configuration parameter PARAM_ADMIN_ID, which defaults to admin."

           

          You can create users and add them to Administrator groups.
