Roles & Rights

To the video

OSIRIS offers a moderately complex roles and rights model that gives users a high degree of flexibility. By default, there are five roles in OSIRIS, each with different rights. Every person logging in automatically has all the rights of a user. A person can also have several roles. When logging in for the first time, you can specify whether you are a scientist. If you tick this box, you automatically have all the rights of a Scientist and also all the rights of a User.

Rights Panel

Section of the rights panel in the legacy view, to be found in the admin view under "Roles and rights"

The right Upload own user picture is only set here for users, as it automatically applies to all other roles. The creation of activities is not regulated by the rights and can be carried out by any user.

Add new role

In addition to the five standard roles, other roles can also be added. This is possible for every user who has access to the admin panel. The newly added role initially has no rights.
