The censhare standard workspace for dedicated solutions contains preconfigured roles and permission sets. Optionally, you can add minimum/maximum workflow states, and minimum/maximum workflow target states to each role. In the user configuration, assign a default domain and the shared and common domains with their specific roles to a user.
User roles
Solution developers
Context
Permission sets are assigned to roles. Users are assigned to a default role in their main domain, and additional roles in other domains.
Prerequisites
None
Introduction
Processes, responsibilities and functions determine, which access, editing and approval permissions users need to carry out their tasks. The preconfigured roles of the censhare Standard solutions cover most requirements of the production process and administration your assets.
The roles and permissions are stored in the Master data/ Roles and the Master data/Permission sets tables.

Role and domain schemas
For the proper function of the censhare Standard workspace, users require access to the common resources domain, the global share and the organizational share domains. As best practice, users can also be granted read access to the default domains of the other dedicated solutions.
The censhare standard workspace for dedicated solutions does not add any users to the master data, but provides XML configuration files for dedicated test users. You can import these users for test purposes and as a blueprint for dedicated PIM, DAM, CMS and Project solutions.
Create test users
Important: The generic test users provided with censhare Dedicated Solutions are only for test purposes. Never use test users in production systems!
The configuration files of the test users are stored as Text/XML assets. The assets are part of the dedicated solution package. The assets contain only the configuration. The users themselves are not part of the dedicated solutions. This section describes how to create the test users from the configuration files. If you cannot find the respective assets in your system, you can import the assets in the censhare Admin Client with the Synchronize Dedicated Solutions action. In the dialog, select dedicated-solutions/03_test-users and click OK to run the import.
The import creates the following assets:
Asset (resource key)
Default role (domain)
Additional roles (domains)
censhare Media Consumer (demo:pim-test-user.media-consumer)
In censhare Web, search for the desired asset (you can search for the name or resource key from the table above), and open it in an asset page.
In the Files widget, click to download the XML master file.
Open the censhare Admin Client, and click to open the Import XML files dialog.
Select the test user XML file from the download folder of your computer.
In the Import XML files dialog, click to start the import.
In the import resume dialog, click OK.
Repeat the previous steps for each test user that you want to add.
Edit test users
The test users are created as censhare Master data. You can view and edit the imported test users in the Master data/Users table in the censhare Admin Client.
Create person assets from test users
In a common scenario, users are also managed as a person resource in censhare. Person resources are represented in Person assets. You can enrich person assets with further data. For example, contact data, departments, personal goals, etc.
To create person assets from the test users, in the censhare Admin Client, open the server actions menu ( ) and select the Create person assets action. In the dialog, click OK to run the action. Person assets are created for all users, you cannot select individual users in the dialog. To access the person assets in censhare Web, open the Last created page.
Result
The preconfigured roles are ready to be used in your digital asset management solution. You know how to configure default and additional domains and roles for users.
