Team-Based Authorization in faynoSync — Manage Your Team Like a Pro
Managing a team of developers? Need to control who can do what in your faynoSync instance? Starting from version 1.4.0, faynoSync introduces a powerful Team Based Authorization Matrix that gives you complete control over your team's access and permissions.
What is Team-Based Authorization? 🤔
Think of it as your team's digital headquarters! The Team Based Authorization Matrix is a sophisticated system that lets you:
- 👨💼 Create and manage team users
- 🔐 Assign specific permissions
- 🏢 Keep data isolated between different teams
- 📊 Track who can do what
Meet the Players 🎭
The Administrator 👑
- You're the boss! Each admin is unique
- You own your team of users
- You can create, update, and delete your team members
- You have full control over passwords and permissions
- You can only access your own team's resources
The Team User 👤
- A unique member of your team
- Belongs only to you (their admin)
- Can't manage other users
- Can only work with resources you've allowed
- Everything they create belongs to you
What Can Your Team Do? 🛠️
Each team member can have different permissions for different types of resources:
Resource Types:
- 📱 Applications
- 📊 Channels
- 💻 Platforms
- 🏗️ Architectures
Available Permissions:
- ➕ Create
- ✏️ Edit
- 🗑️ Delete
- ⬆️ Upload (for apps)
- ⬇️ Download (for apps)
Smart Resource Management 🧠
- 🔒 Team users can only see and use resources they've been given access to
- 🏢 Each admin's resources are completely separate
- 👀 You (as admin) can see everything your team creates
- 📝 Different teams can have resources with the same names
