Users and RBAC

DigiScript allows you to create users per-show, and configure Role Based Authorisation (RBAC) for them. This is an optional feature and does not have to be used, the admin user created during application first launch has the permissions to perform all actions, and can be used solely to administer the DigiScript application. However, adding users will allow others to perform actions such as configuring the show and script, or adding new cues.

To configure users, a show must first be loaded. Once this has been done, as the admin user you can navigate to the System Config section page from the top navigation bar, and then to the Users tab within this page. This will show you a table of all users for the current show:

To add a new user, simply click on the New User button and enter the details into the form presented to you:

Note: the username entered must be unique to the entire system, not per show.

Once users have been created, their roles can be changed by clicking on the RBAC button next to each user’s details. This will bring up the option to configure roles per object per resource, for example configuring the roles for a particular Cue type.
