About Information Console functionality levels
Actuate Information Console supports users running designs, and viewing and interacting with documents from a web browser.
Information Console provides functionality levels that control the features available to a user. By default, all functionality level features are available to a new user. The Information Console administrator can modify functionality levels and add additional levels by editing the configuration file. The out-of-the-box (OOTB) functionality levels map to the following security roles in Management Console:
Active Portal Administrator
Includes all privileges of the Active Portal Advanced role, and also allows users to clone and customize Information Console skins.
Active Portal Advanced
Includes all privileges of the Active Portal Intermediate role, and also allows users to perform tasks such as creating and deleting folders. Management Console assigns this functionality level to a new user by default.
Active Portal Intermediate
Includes the privileges assigned to the All role, and also allows users to perform tasks such as searching documents and subscribing to channels.
Table 3‑2 shows which tasks each role can execute by default.
