Thingworx Security setup

[sr11]

We would like to set up Thingworx for various set of users

eg. Admin, Designer, Developer, End user (Who can just read things). Even after creating different user groups/users and assigning various permissions, it is still not working. Can any one help?

Sujal, do you still have the Users group in the Everyone Organization? If so, please do remove that.

Hi Ravi,

Thanks for the reply.

I did tried that but it is still not allowing the newly added user to create things and other similar actions.

[Aanjan]

What permissions have you set for the user? Does it error out with a specific message?

[sr11]

I created a group with 'Green' in all crud operations, then I added the user to that group.

[Aanjan]

Have you setup permissions on Resources and Subsystems as well? For example, if you want a user to create to create a Thing, they would need permissions on the EntityServices Resource.

I think I missed this, can you pl. suggest any tutorial for initial security setup, the 'Security' section in help does not mention much. So it would be be good to have any step by step guide for basic initial setup.

Can you try accessing this link? That tutorial goes over the security aspects.

I could not access the precisionLMS with my PTC account. Does it require any special privileges?

[Aanjan]

I believe it is part of PTC eLearning. Have you signed up for or had gone through any specific training materials?
