Creating an Editable (Full) Profile: Administrator Example

This example details a security profile that may be used for an APM administrator. In this example, APM administrators are responsible for all enterprise and site settings, except for the asset hierarchy, site type settings, and the creation of new sites. The Administrator profile therefore provides full access to all objects and actions, with the following exceptions:
•
Read-only access to the site listing and hierarchy
•
Read-only access to the asset hierarchy settings
•
Read-only access to the site type settings

Select the Security view and then the Security Profiles tab.
