Hi Jody and Andrea,

I was looking more for the main menu items on the Left Hand Menu.

For example, the “Data” has a “Styles” entry;  I’d perhaps list this as 
available to a new ROLE_GRAPHICS_DESIGNERS role that I’d assign members.  When 
a user logs in with the ROLE_GRAPHIC_DESIGNERS role, they would see this menu 
item.  However, users without this role would not.

Mostly I would expect to use this more with our application specific menu 
entries, hiding or showing menu items based on the user ROLE.

I saw the ComponentAuthorizer property for the MenuPageInfo class, but I am not 
sure if this is used to determine display of the menu item itself, or 
blocking/showing the actual page after clicking the menu item.  Preference 
would be to NOT display the menu items, or groups, for which a user does not 
have the appropriate ROLE assigned.

Thanks,

There is not, the web admin application has two roles defined:

- ADMINISTRATOR - full access
- GROUP_ADMIN - able to manage some security settings

The request I most often get is for something similar to an ADMINISTRATOR who 
can only make configuration changes in a single workspace.

You mean, a workspace admin? That's already possible, just go in the data 
security and assign the "a" (admin) for one (or more) workspaces
to a certain user.
Maybe I misunderstood?

Cheers
Andrea
