Manage the access to a runtime

Introduction

A public runtime item is visible and usable by all accounts.
A private runtime item, instead, is initially only visible to and usable by its creator, who is also the initial owner. He can however share the runtime item with others and even give its ownership to an account he has shared the item with.

Info

A runtime item cannot be shared with groups, only with user or service accounts.

Manage shares

To manage the shares of a runtime item you must either be its owner or have the Edit runtime permission on it, a permission that can be given to you by someone who has shared the item with you.

In the Runtimes page, select the runtime item from the list and then select Share runtime in the right pane. A dialog appears. The dialog shows at least one line corresponding to the item owner, the implicit share.

  • To create a new share:

    1. Select the account from the Account drop-down list. To filter the list, type something in the input field: only accounts with a name, surname or username that contains what you typed will be listed.
    2. if you want to assign permissions, select Edit runtime , Publish and test to the right of the account name.
    3. Select Add.

  • To delete a share:

    • Select Remove from the drop-down menu to the right of the account name in the share row.

      Note

      You cannot delete the implicit share corresponding to the ownership of the runtime item.

    Or:

    • If you are not the owner of the runtime item shared with you, select Leave in the row corresponding to your account.

  • To change the permissions of an existing share, check or uncheck the permissions in the drop-down list to the right of the account name for the given share.

Change the owner

If you are the owner of a runtime item, you can transfer the ownership to another account. First share the runtime item with that account (see the procedure above), then:

  • In the Runtimes page, select the runtime item from the list and then select Share runtime in the right pane. A dialog appears.
  • Select Set as owner in the row of the share of the account you want to become the new owner.
    A share is automatically created for you so that you can continue to access accessing the runtime item with full permissions. However, the new owner can remove one or more permissions or delete the share.
