Creating User Overrides for Spaces

Overview

This article provides the procedure for creating user overrides for 'Spaces' in Jive, to allow specific permissions to individual users, or restrict them from such access.

Information

You can create an override for an individual user of a space, to grant a particular set of permissions. An override can be used if:

• A user requires a specific set of permissions for a place but is not (or should not be) a member of a user group to which you have already assigned access.
• A user is a member of a user group to which you have assigned permissions for a place but requires a different level of access. For example, you might want to separately define the user permissions to enhance or limit their access to the place.
