Read Permission Filter 

Definition

The read permission filter is a namespace filter that removes all documents, links, and folders for which a user has no read permission from a resource list.

 

Use

You should use this filter if you want users only to see content in a repository or folder if they have read permission for the resources in question. If users do not have read permission for a document, it is automatically hidden from them.

The filter therefore restricts the number of relevant documents for users.

 

Activities

To create a read permission filter, or to change the configuration of an existing filter, choose Content Management ® Repository Filters ® Read Permission Filter.

For a description of the filter parameters used, see Namespace Filters.

 

Example

Name                  = myfilter
Folder to be Filtered = /project
Repositories          = documents
Class  = com.sapportals.wcm.repository.filter.readonly.ReadOnlyFilterManager

The example above shows the configuration of a content filter named myfilter. The filter is applied to all resources in the folder /project of the repository documents.
