Security - Page Levels Settings in Connect for Appetize

Description: Page Levels are a security configuration in Connect that determines access to a Connect function or page based on the level assigned within a Connect Role.

---

To perform actions on a page, the account level must be equal to or higher than the level set for the page. These Levels are created at the client's discretion and can be customized based on need.

Below is an example guideline of user access to various Connect modules based on role/level.

• Level 1: Site Administrator = All Access in modules (Create, Delete, Edit, Import, Export)
• Level 5: Manager = Restricted Pages or Functions (Create, Edit)
• Level 10: View Only = Access Pages/Functions (No Create, Delete, Edit, etc.)

Note: Level 1 has the most access, and Level 10 has the least access. The lower the number of the role, the higher the access. 

Configure Page Levels

1. Log in to Connect and select Settings from the left-side menu. 
2. Select Security and then Page Levels.
3. Select the hamburger icon to export and import the settings.
   
4. Each module breaks out page Levels in Connect.
5. Select a module to edit.
6. A window will open with each action associated with the module so a level can be set for each item.
7. To perform actions on a page, the account level must be equal to or higher than the level set for the page.
   • The access must be higher, but the actual level will be a lower number. 
   • If Accounts > Create is set to 6, only users with Levels 1-6 assigned to their Connect Role will be able to create accounts.
   • If the Connect Role is Level 7, the user will not be able to create an account. 
8. The Accounts module has the following options. 
   • Create: Access to Create Accounts in Connect
   • Delete: Access to Delete Accounts in Connect
   • Edit: Access to Edit Accounts in Connect
   • Export: Access to Export Accounts in Connect
   • Import: Access to Import Accounts in Connect
