Permission templates

Alternatively, you can secure resources using permission templates (pre-defined jobs). The appropriate permissions are assigned to items secured in this manner. Permission templates are available as additional options for users with “advanced security” access. Users with “basic security” permissions can only secure resources using permission templates:

The following permission templates are available in Mediasite:

Permission Template

  When a user is assigned moderate permissions for a presentation, questions will be forwarded to the email address associated with their valid user profile unless the user opts out of moderator emails or provides an alternate moderator email address.
