===== Permissions =====

PMA.core supports 7 different types of permissions on Root Directories, that can be applied to a **[[user_management|user]] or a [[user_groups|group]]**. Those types are:

  * **Create**: This grants permissions to create folders, subfolders in a root directory.
  * **Read**: This grants permissions to read slides and the contents of all folders in a root directory. Also grants the permissions to read annotations from slides in a root directory.
  * **Update**: This grants permissions to rename and move slides and folders in a root directory.
  * **Delete**: This grants permissions to delete slides and folders in a root directory.
  * **Download**: This grants permissions to download slides via the [[https://docs.pathomation.com/pma.core.api/#/Transfer|Transfer API]].
  * **Upload**:This grants permissions to upload slide via the [[https://docs.pathomation.com/pma.core.api/#/Transfer|Transfer API]].
  * **ExecuteScript**: This grants permissions to execute scripts on the slides of a root directory using the [[https://docs.pathomation.com/pma.core.api/#/Script|Script API]].

To create, edit or delete annotations, a user must have the Create, Update and Delete permissions assigned, regardless of which exactly operation they are performing on the annotations.
