Permissions management
IDEA Virtual Desktop Interface enable sessions sharing. Sharing a session is particularly useful if you are planning to do live debugging with your collaborators. Read https://github.com/cfs-energy-internal/idea/blob/docs-update/docs/modules/virtual-desktop-interfaces/user-documentation/share-a-virtual-desktop.md to learn more about the use cases.
As VDI administrator, you do have the ability to manage the current permission profiles available to your users. By default, IDEA ships with multiple pre-configured Permission Profiles:
observer: Read/Only access to the session
admin: Full privileges on the session
collaborator: Can see screen + control mouse and keyboard
owner: Grant same permissions as the virtual desktop session owner
Create a custom permission profile
Click "Create Permission Profile" button and fill out the form:
Profile ID: Unique profile ID (e.g: observer_profile)
Title: Friendly name (e.g: View Only Profile)
Description: Description of the profile
Then select what permission(s) you want to apply by using the toggle buttons
Once done, click "Submit" button. The profile will then be available to use by the users (refer to Permissions management for more details)
