Setting User Group Access to Map Commands

You can set user group permissions for map commands. The map commands available for configuration and the default configuration for each map command vary depending on the Civic Platform application that your agency uses.

To set user group access to map commands

  1. Navigate to the User Group Permissions page.

  2. Click the arrow icon to expand the Map Commands section.

    The Accela Silverlight GIS Administration site displays the default map commands selected for the user group.

  3. Mark the check box next to each map command you want to make accessible for the selected user group. Alternatively, you can mark the check box next to the Command Name column header to select all the map commands. For a complete list of map commands, see Table 1.
