HINT
Authorizations are permissions that allow user access to defined areas of PANTHEON. User-specific authorizations are applied as soon as a user logs on to PANTHEON.
There are two levels of authorizations:
- Permissions on user group level - the topmost level of authorizations
- Permissions on user level - lower level of authorizations; every user has by default the authorizations of his or her user group, which can be personalized
