I'm not an expert on the Amber usecase, but I suppose it is possible to have multiple user groups for a single usecase. It could be to have a shared space of data hidden from each user group. It could be to author access/privilledges to the portal or resources depending on the user group.
I would assume the mapping of user to usergroups would be many to one mapping. Unlike user roles I don't think it is sensible to have users being mapped to multiple groups (there is a whole area of security to consider here). (I do have to note that usergroup IMO is not a must concept for a science gateway) On Fri, Jan 31, 2014 at 8:55 AM, Sachith Withana <[email protected]>wrote: > Hi all, > > Can someone explain to me the mapping of users to groups in a Science > Gateway?
