Permissions
Note: As of February 2025, the new Feature Permissions redefines Relativity's security management by shifting the focus from Object Types and Tab Visibility to feature-based permissions. This new method is simply another option; any feature-specific permissions information already in this topic is still applicable. This new interface enables administrators to manage permissions at the feature level, offering a more intuitive experience. By viewing granular permissions associated with each feature, administrators can ensure comprehensive control, ultimately reducing complexity and minimizing errors. For details see
Instance-level permissions and
Workspace-level permissions.
Import/Export validates the user's permissions and checks if all required applications are installed in their workspace. If the user does not have permission to run a given workflow or if any application needed for that workflow is not installed, Import/Export grays out the workflow button and displays a warning message below it explaining why it's inactive. This validation process works separately for each workflow. For example, if a user does not have permission to run a Processing job, they may still be able to import load file data but will not be able to process it.
All permissions are set in Workspace security.
