Background.

This example considers the case where there is one team of users owning the single instance. The team consists of multiple people with different roles. The most common roles in this case are:

Sample solution.

Create one role for each role of user: developer_role, tester_role, manager_role, admin_role, and reader_role. Additionally, create one group at the root level for each role of user, assigning the corresponding role to each group: developers, testers, managers, admins and readers. Finally add the members to each group as necessary.

This example considers the case where there are multiple teams of users sharing the single instance. Each team consists of multiple people with different roles. The most common roles in this case are:

Sample solution.

Create one role for each role of user: builder_role, developer_role, tester_role, manager_role, admin_role, and reader_role. Additionally, create two groups at the root level for the administrators and readers, assigning the corresponding role to each group: admins and readers respectively. Use the folders plugin to create folders for the two teams, and in each folder create groups for the builders, developers, testers and managers of the respective teams. Finally add the members to each group as necessary.

Complete the configuration by adding the members of each team as members of the corresponding groups.

Background.

This example considers the case where you want to have a secret project on a shared instance. The project will be worked on by a small team who should be able to see the project, but everyone outside of that team will be unable to see the project.

Sample solution.

Create a group in the project (or folder) for the team of people who will be working on the secret project. Add all the roles that the team will require. Add all the members of the team. Modify the role filters for the project (or folder) filtering out every role (or all but the administrator role if administrators are to be allowed to view the project).
