Sharing and Access Rights¶
Apromore allows us to share files/folders. Each file/folder has a particular security level.
Note
By default, each file/folder is created and saved as private and can be accessed, edited, deleted only by the owner.
It is possible to change a file/folder’s security level by selecting it in the workspace and clicking the Share button.
Share an event log¶
To share an event log, select the log from the workspace and click on the Share button.
File Sharing window consists of two sections: List of Users and Associated artifacts.
Note
All the artifacts (filters/dashboards) associated to a log are automatically shared with the log.
We can select a user or group with whom we want to share the file from the Select a user or group drop-down list. Click on Share.
The selected user appears in the users’ list.
We can see the list of associated artifacts automatically shared with a user in the Associated Artifacts section.
Note
Only an owner or editor can edit/rename/delete the associated artifacts.
To change the access rights for a particular user, click on the Permission drop-down list and select the desired permissions.
Finally, click on Apply Changes.
To revoke access for a particular user, click on the Remove button.
Share a process model¶
To share a process model, select it from the workspace and click on the Share button.
We can select a user or group with whom we want to share the model from the Select a user or group drop-down list. Click on Share.
The selected user appears in the users’ list.
To change the access rights for a particular user, click on the Permission drop-down list and select the desired permissions.
Finally, click on Apply Changes.
To revoke access for a particular user, click on the Remove button.
Share a folder¶
To share a folder, select the folder from the workspace and click on the Share button.
We can select a user or group with whom we want to share the folder from the Select a user or group drop-down list. Click on Share.

Note
For security reasons, the files in the folder are not automatically shared. To share a file within a folder, we must select it individually and provide access.
Access Rights Management¶
Access Rights Management functionality provides the administrators with a comprehensive view of all the files and folders along with the users and their access rights. The administrator can easily browse through the permissions of the files/folders.
Note
Only a user with administrator rights can access the Access Rights Management functionality.
To share files/folders, click on the Manage Access Rights button.
After the Access rights management window opens, select the file/folder to be shared and select the username you intend to share the file/folder within the Select a user or group drop-down list. Click on Share to share the file/folder.
On clicking Share, the user appears in the users list.
To change the access rights for a particular user, click on the Permission drop-down list and select the desired permissions.
Finally, click on Apply Changes.
To revoke access for a particular user, click on the Remove button.
