Permissions to parts of the repository

EA Information Portal supports a permission system at the package level (repository browser tree branches), both for reading and (since version 7.5) for writing.

It is therefore possible to restrict the reading of parts of the model to specific groups or users. This functionality is not available in Enterprise Architect itself.

It is therefore possible to restrict access of certain users to (for example) specific projects, sensitive processes, risk analyses, strategic business models, etc.

This feature fundamentally supports the effort to have all models in one repository.

Permissions can be set for groups and users.

Permissions are applied hierarchically from the package they are set on down.
