Overview

This article provides the procedure for creating custom permission levels for 'Spaces' in Jive.

Information

You can create a custom space permission level that allows fine-grained control of a space. For example, you might create a custom level in which people can create new discussion posts but only comment on documents (rather than create them).

Process

To create a custom permission level for spaces:

1. Navigate to Admin Console > Permissions > Space Permission Levels.
2. On the Custom Levels tab, click Create new permission level.
3. In the Create a Custom Permission Level dialog box, enter a name and description for the permission level. These help other administrators know the purpose of the new level.
4. Under Access and administration, select a category for the level, then choose from the options in the category.
5. Click Save.

Confirmation

You can now assign the custom level to an individual user or a user group, then configure the permissions for a space to include that user or user group.
