Assign Access Levels to Query Based Collections

Access Levels are bundles of EmpowerID operations and/or native system rights specific to a resource type that when assigned to users grants those users the ability to access IT resources in the manner specified by the Access Level. When you assign Access Levels to Query-Based Collections, each member of the Query-Based Collection will receive those Access Levels and be able to perform the tasks associated with them. For example, if you assign the Member Access Level for a generic group to a Query-Based Collection, each person in the collection will be granted group membership.
