Hi Sean

I believe the wildcard admin tool only works on the individual item/bitstream level, it doesn't allow you to change a collection's/community's permissions.

Note also that if you choose to remove permissions, in my experience at least, this will remove *all* permissions from an item/bitstream within a collection.

Best,
Arthur

Am I correct in thinking I can use the wildcard policy admin tool to add/remove a group's permission to add items to a set of collections?

For example, I have a group of epersons named Step2; I want to give them permissions to archive items, that is, approve items in the collection step 2 phase so that the items appear in the collection.

So I go to the wildcard policy admin tool and make the following selections:

Group: Step2
Action: Add
Content Type: item
Collection: (I select all collections)

and click Add policies.

From the logs I can see items being updated, but when I go to a collection's authorisations, and look at the workflow step 2 (e.g. COLLECTION_9_WORKFLOW_STEP_2), the group I expected to appear in the Members is not there. No new policy has been added to the list of policies either.

Have I misunderstood the purpose of the wildcard policy admin tool, or am I just doing something wrong?

Sean
