Stimulsoft Server supports a Role-based Access Control. Role is an object that determines the level of user access to system resources. Members having the same role have the same rights of access to system objects. The most important property of the role is StiRole.Permissions. It is an object of the StiRolePermissions class that describes a set of permissions (StiPermissions) for system objects:

 

 

 

None - Denies all;

Create - Allows creating an item;

Delete - Allows deleting an item;

Modify - Allows modifying an item;

Run - Allows running an item;

View - Allows viewing an item;

ModifyView - Allows modifying and viewing an item;

CreateDeleteModifyView - Allows creating, deleting, modifying and viewing an item;

RunView - Allows running and viewing an item;

All - Allows any action with an item.

 

In order to use the StiUserConnection class you should create an instance of StiServerConnection and call one of its methods (StiServerConnection.Accounts.Roles).

 

The StiRole class provides access to information about the roles.

The role name or the key can obtain an instance of this class. For this use methods GetByName() (GetByNameAsync()) and GetByKey() (GetByKeyAsync()) respectively.

There is also the fastest way to get an instance of the current role by calling the Current property in the StiServerConnection. Roles class.
