Permission Groups Mapping Window

The Permission Groups Mapping window displays the mapping between Fabric roles and the TDM Permission Groups.

The relation between Fabric roles and TDM Permission Groups is many-to-one, i.e. one or multiple Fabric role(s) can be mapped into a given TDM Permission Group.

This mapping must be added by the TDM Portal setup activities and is saved in permission_groups_mapping TDM DB table.

Who Can Map a Fabric Role to a TDM Permissions Group?

Only Admin users can add, remove, or edit a mapping of a Fabric role to a permission group.

The TDMDB creation script inserts an initial record to permission_groups_mapping TDM DB table to map Fabric admin role to the Admin TDM Permission Group. This enables an admin user (attached to Fabric admin role) to populate the initial TDM Permission Groups mapping in the TDM Portal:

Note that if Fabric is set to authenticate using SAML, LDAP, or AD/LDAP, you must add the following record to permission_groups_mapping TDM DB table before the first log in to the TDM Portal:

insert into public.permission_groups_mapping (
    description,
    fabric_role,
    permission_group,
    created_by,
    updated_by,
    creation_date,
    update_date
) values ('Initial mapping for admin user', '<admin group name>', 'admin', 'admin', 'admin', NOW(), NOW());
