User Permissions

The Merchant Center grants permissions based on a user's Team. A Team can belong to only one Organization. An Organization can have as many Teams as necessary, and a user can belong to more than one Team in more than one Organization. You can assign permissions to a Team for multiple Projects in an Organization. If a user belongs to more than one Team, then permissions are additive and the user receives all the permissions granted to them by all Teams that they belong to.

You can assign the following permissions:

• View permissions: members of a Team can view, but not edit or delete.
• View and edit permissions: members of a Team can view, edit, and delete.
  • Action Rights: some permissions have additional action rights, which control specific editing actions in a permission group. Action rights are a subset of view and edit permissions, scoping view and edit permissions to specific aspects of a particular area in the Merchant Center.
• Menu item permissions: members of a Team can hide navigation items from the main menu.

A Team can have view or edit permissions to a section of the Merchant Center, which is hidden from their menus.

Permissions are assigned to a specific Project in an Organization, and not to all Projects.

View and edit permissions are workflow-based. If users have permissions to access a workflow, then the permissions are configured to make sure that all related data relationships needed for the workflow are fulfilled. For example, the Orders permission grants access to several APIs such as Customers, Payments, States, and Discount Codes.

Reference: permissions and action rights
