Allow users to create a template

As an Inspire administrator, you can set permissions to grant or deny users and roles access to a specific module. By default, only users with administrator permissions have the option to Create Template on the Create Component screen. If you want to allow a user without these permissions to create templates in the Components browser and in projects, you can give them permission in Module Access Management.

Tips and tricks

  • Even if the user does not have permissions to create a template, they can still access a component's Details and add or remove the Template property.

To allow users to create templates:

  1. From the Security menu, select Module access management.
  2. From the Module access management tab, select Content Browser, and then at the end of that row click Update pencil_icon.
  3. On the Update Module Access Permissions screen, select the Properties tab.
  4. In Module Properties, select can_create_template.
  5. In Users/Roles, click Add.
    On the Select Users screen, if the list is large or you only want to see a certain type of user, you can narrow the list in the following ways:

    • To see only names that contain a word or specific letters, in Filter, enter text. For example you can find names that contain "admin", or "review". You can't search for text in any other column except Name.
    • To see all users sorted by Name, Security Type, or User Type, click the column heading and then click the grey arrow. To sort by Name or User Type you can also use the Sort By drop-down box.
    • By default, names with a User Type of Support are not included in the list. To see these users, select the Include support users option.
  6. After you finish selecting users or roles, click Select.
    Results:
    • You see your selection(s) added to the Users/Roles list.
    • You return to the Permissions tab of the Update Module Access Permissions screen.
  7. On the Update Module Access Permissions screen, click Save.
    Results:
    • You are returned to Module Access Management screen.
    • Any users whose access you changed must log out and back in to see the changes.
