Assign Relative Access for Responsibilities

When a person is assigned responsibility for a resource, the person also needs access to that resource. You can assign such access for each resource type all at once using a relative access assignment. There are two places where you can accomplish this:

  • On the Person ViewOne page
  • On the Manage Delegations page

To assign relative access via the Person page

  1. In the Navigation Sidebar, expand Identity Administration and select People.
  2. Search for and select the person who is the responsible party to whom you want to assign access.
  3. On the Person ViewOne page, expand the Access Assignments accordion and in the Assign direct to resource or other method? selector, choose Relative.

  4. Click the Add button (the plus sign) at the top of the grid, and in the dialog that appears, select the Resource Type, for example, Computer.

  5. In the Relative Resource selector, choose Computers I am responsible for.

  6. Select the Access Level to grant the person and click Save.


To assign relative access via the Manage Delegations page

  1. In the Navigation Sidebar, expand Admin then RBAC and select Manage Delegations.
  2. On the Actor Delegations tab, in the Which person needs access? field, type a name and click the tile to select the person.

  3. For the Assign direct to resource or other method? selector, choose Relative.
  4. Click the Add button (the plus sign) at the top of the grid, and in the dialog that appears, select the Resource Type, for example, Group (Security).
  5. In the Relative Resource selector, choose Security Groups I am responsible for.

  6. Select the Access Level to grant the person and click Save.
