Managing Reading Access in MEGA
You can set up and manage data reading access in MEGA in two ways:
Reading access area matrix method:
1. Create the different user reading access areas you require.
2. Distribute persons or person groups in user reading access areas.
3. Distribute objects in object reading access areas.
4. Associate user reading access areas with object reading access areas.
Reading access diagram method:
1. Define organization and hierarchy of the different reading access areas you require.
2. Create and organize these users in a reading access diagram.
3. Associate persons or person groups with different reading access areas.
Objects created by users are then distributed in the user reading access area.
Compiling the Reading Access Diagram
Running reading access diagram compilation assures consistency of behavior of MEGA with declarations of the diagram.
If the diagram is not compiled, there is a risk that certain users will be able to see objects that are normally hidden.
To compile the reading access diagram:
1. From MEGA Administration, connect to the environment concerned.
2. Expand the User Management folder of the environment.
3. Right-click the user Data Reading Access folder and select Compile.
On completion of compilation, a message indicates the result of the operation.
