Granting User Ability to Create Documents

Create Document Privilege allows Regular and Power Users to see the Documents entry in the Content menu, create Documents and access Editor page of Documents created by other Users. To be able to create a Document, Users have to be granted a specific Privilege. This article describes the steps an Administrator should take to give the Regular or Power User ability to create Documents.

Assign the "Create Documents" Privilege

NOTE: The "Create Documents" Privilege can be a part of a Privilege Set. Assigning Privilege Sets rather than specific Privileges is recommended in Metric Insights, so check the Privileges List at the bottom of the page. If the "Create Global Documents" Privilege is not in the list, proceed with this step.

Access Admin > Users & Groups, click on the User's Active Name link to open the User Editor and go to Privileges tab

  1. [+Privilege To User]
  2. Filter the list by "document".
  3. Find the "Create Documents" Privilege and select the checkbox.
  4. [Save]
