Designer administration requests

To create new Communication Manager Designer users and assign roles to the user, use the DesignerAddUserV2 and DesignerAddRoleV1 calls. See DesignerAddUserV2 and DesignerAddRoleV1, respectively.

The roles that are allowed to be assigned through the request are explicitly whitelisted on the server. The whitelist is defined by the Communications Manager Core Designer.AllowedUserRoles setting, which can be specified on the General tab of the Environments node in Communications Manager Core Administrator. For more information about Communications Manager Core settings, see the Tungsten Communications Manager Core Developer's Guide.

These roles are allowed:

  • Author
  • Project Administrator
  • Content Viewer
  • Publisher
  • Publishing Author
  • Publishing Reviewer
  • Viewer

For a description of the roles, see the section "Roles and permissions" in the Tungsten Communications Manager Designer Help.
