Layer Access Control

PreviousOther Service TypesNextMetadata and Attribution

Last updated 6 months ago

All Overlay Layers support Access Control settings to limit visibility of data to the appropriate group. Open the layer editor to change these settings. Layers may be entirely Public, limited to particular User Groups, or restricted to only Admins. See the page for details on how to assign users to these different groups and roles.

In addition to assigning Access Control rules on individual layers, you can set these permissions on Folders. Visibility of a folder will control access to all contained sub-folders and layers.

Users and Groups
The layer editor can be opened by right-clicking on a layer in the Overlay Layers list

Remember, changes to these settings will only be updated after
